ANOVA works by calculating the amount of systematic variance (variance between groups or treatments) and unsystematic variance (variance within groups or treatments) in the data. This is achieved by dividing the systematic variance by the unsystematic variance using an F-test. Option A presents the correct formula for calculating this ratio.
