Hello, everyone. I am in a descriptive statistics class and was given an assignment that included the mean scores for two tests, the standard deviations, and the number of participants taking each test. One of the questions for the assignment was: Which test probably had the most possible points, and how do you know? What other information would have been helpful to determine the answer to this question?
I am no mathematician, but to me, it doesn't appear possible to determine the number of points possble based the mean without knowing how many questions were on each test. Am I thinking correctly?
Thank you for any help you can provide!
