Q3. One important factor in selecting software for word processing and database management systems is the time required to learn how to use a particular system. In order to evaluate three database manage­ment systems, a firm devised a test to see how many training hours were needed for five of its word processing operators to become proficient in each of three systems.

System A 16 19 14 13 18 hours
System B 16 17 13 12 17 hours
System C 24 22 19 18 22 hours

Using a 5% significance level, is there any difference between the training time needed for the three systems?
