A clinical chemistry laboratory is comparing the precision of two different glucose analyzers. They conducted 40 replicate measurements on the same quality control sample using both analyzers and obtained the following results: Analyzer A:Mean glucose: 100 mg/dLStandard deviation: 2 mg/dL Analyzer B:Mean glucose: 200 mg/dLStandard deviation: 3 mg/dL Which of the following statements is correct regarding the precision of these analyzers?
