Answer: The answer is 60, 45, 20, then 5.

Explanation:

The variance would increase the bigger the numberr because there is more data. Lets says that the 5 women have a range of 1 and 10 with a meam with a 5. The data separating the mean and the top range is 5. But lets says that the range for the women is 1 and 80, with a mean of 40. The difference in the mean and the top range is 40. 40>5 because there is simply more data. Therefore higher variance.
