Hey Im studying business operations. An example in the text has 52 x square root of 6 = 12.25. How is this calculated correct?
52*sqrt(6) = 127.3734666247252611
It's not even remotely CLOSE to correct, as you can see.
52*sqrt(6) = 127.3734666247252611
It's not even remotely CLOSE to correct, as you can see.
This is coming directly from an example in my text. I keep getting 127.3734666247252611 and its really ticking me off. The problem is explaining the standard deviation of a certain inventory count, 52 for 52 weeks in a year and 6 being lead time + weeks (4+2). I have no idea why a solved solution in the text has the answer at 12.25.
