Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Variability is usually measured in terms of the proportion of the total variability that can be attributed to a particular source. This proportion is denoted by p. The remaining proportion (q) is equal to 100%-p. Therefore, option C is correct. Options A, B and D are incorrect as they state that p and q are always less than or equal to each other or equal to each other, which is not necessarily true. Option E is also incorrect as it is an unrelated formula.
