Prof. ERBsent out six groups of students to measure a distance between two points on the ground. The students came up with the following six different values: 360.52, 360.35. 360,89, 361.02, 359.98, and 360.78 meters. Assuming these values are equally reliable and that the variations result from accidental error, determine the most probable value of the distance measured. A. 360.47 m C. 360.59 m B. 360.96 m D. 360.85 m Ps. With solution please
