A randomized block design with four treatments and five blocks produced the following sum of squares values: SST = 1951,SSG = 349,SSB = 1414.Based on this data,the value of the SSE is calculated to be:
A)188
B)537
C)1602
D)1763

SSE = SST - SSG - SSB = 1951 - 349 - 1414 = 188. SSE represents the sum of squares due to error, which is the variation unexplained by the treatment or block effects.
