Relative Standard Deviation (RSD)

Definition of relative standard deviation :

Same as coefficient of variation.

The standard deviation is a measure of how precise the average is, or how well the numbers in a sequence agree or relate to each other.

It is a measure of random error-the error not easily controlled, and is calculated as the sum of the differences between the numbers in a series from the average of those numbers divided by the number in the series minus one.

It is represented as S.

The relative standard deviation or RSD is as follows

: RSD = 100 x S /
average
