Step Type Explanation Answer

1

Problem

Find the 60th percentile.
There are 25 test scores such as: 72,54,56,61,62,66,68,43,69,69,70,71,77,78,79,85,87,88,89,93,95,96,98,99,99.

2

Step

Arrange the given scores in ascending order

43,54,56,61,62,66,68,69,69,70,71,72
77,78,79,85,87,88,89,93,95,96,98,99,99.

3

Step

Total number of observations

n = 25

4

Step

Given percentile value

x = 60

5

Formula:

Percentile Rank \$ P_x = (x(n+1)) /100\$

6

Step

Substitute the n,x values in percentile Rank

\$ P_x = (60(25+1)) /100\$

7

Step

Simplification

\$ P_x = (60(26)) /100\$

8

Step

Simplification

\$ P_x = (1560) /100\$

9

Step

After simplification

\$ P_x = 15.6 ∼ 16 \$

10

Step

Count the value from left to right in the given data set

16
