2.38

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the standard deviation, subtract the mean from each number given, square each outcome, add them all together, divide all of that by the number of outcomes, then square root the whole equation.

Doing this gets you to 2.380476143, rounding this to two decimal places gives 2.38
