The following are two sets of class scores (you may consider these scores to be normally distributed). Julia received the two scores marked with an asterisk. Did she do better or worse on the second test? Why?

First Test 48 * 56 61 60 39 49 5 57 52 51

Second Test 75 81 63 * 74 59 88 77 79 76 69 67

Can somebody offer an explanation as to how to formulate my answer for this question?
