Find the values of the 30th and 90th percentiles of the data. 129, 113, 200, 100, 105, 132, 100, 176, 146, 152
Solution:
Given data: 129, 113, 200, 100, 105, 132, 100, 176, 146, 152
Arrange the data in order from highest to lowest
200
176
152
146
132
129
113
105
100
100
The 90th percentile is the value that beats the lower 90% of the data.
There are 10 values, and 90% of 10 is 9, so 200 is the value that beats the lower 90% of the data, so 200 is the 90th percentile value.
And 30% of 10 is 3, so 105 is the value that beats 30% of the data so 105 is 30th percentile
Find the values of the 30th and 90th percentiles of the data. 129, 113, 200, 100, 105, 132, 100, 176, 146, 152
Summary:
200 is the 90th percentile value and 105 is the 30th percentile value.
