Answer: Score of 38 and Score of 262.7 has a same higher position relatively.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Score of 38 on a test :

X = 27

s = 10

So, Difference between score of 38 with its mean 27 using s = 10 as a measure of value is given by

$(38-27)/(10)\\\\=(11)/(10)\\\\=1.1$

Score of 262.7 on a test :

X = 200

s = 57

So, Difference between score of 262.7 with its mean 200 using s = 57 as a measure of value is given by

$(262.7-200)/(57)\\\\=(62.7)/(57)\\\\=1.1$

Both score the same position.

So, Score of 38 and Score of 262.7 has a same higher position relatively.
