The data in the accompanying table represent the concentration of glucose in the blood serum of an adult patient. On four consecutive days, a blood sample was drawn from the patient and analyzed in triplicate. The variance for a given sample is an estimate of the measurement variance while the day-to-day variance reflects both the measurement variance and the sampling variance.
