The means of two groups of observations $A$ and $B$ are $\bar{x}$ and $\bar{y}$ respectively,and their standard deviations are $2$ and $3$ respectively. In order for group $A$ to be more consistent than group $B$,$\frac{\bar{y}}{\bar{x}} < $

  • A
    $\frac{3}{2}$
  • B
    $\frac{5}{1}$
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}$
  • D
    $\frac{6}{5}$
