Standard Deviation given Probability Factor Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Standard Deviation = (Scheduled Time-Mean Time)/Probability Factor
σ = (T_s-t_e)/Z
This formula uses 4 Variables

Variables Used

Standard Deviation - The Standard Deviation is a measure of how spread out numbers are.
Scheduled Time - (Measured in Day) - Scheduled Time is the time which is made as per the experience and practice by the creator of the project.
Mean Time - (Measured in Day) - Mean Time, also called expected time is the time needed to complete an activity.
Probability Factor - The probability Factor is a term used to find the probability of a project getting completed in the expected time.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Scheduled Time: 6.7 Day --> 6.7 Day No Conversion Required
Mean Time: 4 Day --> 4 Day No Conversion Required
Probability Factor: 2.03 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

σ = (T_s-t_e)/Z --> (6.7-4)/2.03

Evaluating ... ...

σ = 1.33004926108374

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

1.33004926108374 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

1.33004926108374 ≈ 1.330049 <-- Standard Deviation

What is Probability of Occurrence of an Event?

The probability of a project to complete at expected time is 50% and this probability increases or decreases according to the increase or decrease on scheduled time. Since the probability distribution of the entire project is in normal distribution, the probability can be determined using probability factor. If the factor is 0, probability of completing project at expected time is 50%

How to Calculate Standard Deviation given Probability Factor?
