The Summary statistics are as follows

Gr1 Gr2 Gr3
Total 539 438 428
n 6 6 6
Mean 89.833 73.000 71.333
Sum Of Squares 440.3534 504 327.3334
Variance 88.0707 100.8 65.467

The ANOVA table is as calculated below

Source SS DF Mean Square F
Between 1256.76 2 628.38 7.41
Within/Error 1271.69 15 84.78
Total 2528.45 17

SS error = Sum of squares = 440.3534 + 504 + 327.33 = 1271.69

Df error = N - k = 18 - 3 = 15

MS error = SS error / Df error = 1271.69 / 15 = 84.78

From Tukeys table, the critical value for k = 3, df = 15 is 3.140

If HSD is > critical value, then there is a significant difference

Group Mean Absolute Difference Observed Critical Obs > Crit
1 89.83 M1 - M2 16.83 4.4773 3.14 Yes
2 73 M1 - M3 18.5 4.9215 3.14 Yes

Mserror 84.78

Therefore Option d: Both a and b
