s^2=sample variance=22710.9474/19-1=1261.719 min^2

s=sample standard deviation=sqrt(1261.719)=35.521 min

Solutionb:

1 hour=60 min

1min=1/60 hr

s^2=sample variance=22710.9474/19-1=1261.719 min^2=1261.719 (1/60 )^2hr^2=0.3504775=0.350 hour^2

s=sample standard deviation=sqrt(1261.719)=35.521 min=35.521/60=0.5920167 hour=0.592 hour
