A set consists of 10 positive integers. What is the standard deviation of the set?

(1) The sum of the all integers of the set is 10 times the value of any integer of the set
(2) If all of the integers of the set are either multiplied or divided by 10, the standard deviation of the set does not change

Standard deviation is a measure of how spread out the data is compared to the mean.

Statement 1:

The sum of all integers is a fixed value, we can rewrite the statement as "any integer in the set is equal to one-tenth of the sum". Therefore all integers in the set are the same. The standard deviation would be 0, sufficient.

Statement 2:

Typically when we multiply all data points by 10, the standard deviation is also multiplied by 10. Therefore this case can only happen when the original standard deviation is 0. Sufficient.

Ans: D
