First calculate the mean or average of these data set which is : (78 + 67 + 90 + 91 + 65 + 78 + 79)/7 = roughly 78
Then find the standard dev:
sqroot{(78-78)^2+(67-78)^2+(90-78)^2+(91-78)^2+(65-78)^2+(78-78)^2+(79-78)^2}/7 = 9.3
Two standards above the mean is 78+(2x9.3) = 97
Two standards below the mean is 78-(2x9.3) = 59
The question, are you using Chebyshev's inequality?
