Step-by-Step Statistical Derivations
1. Sorted Ascending Dataset:
12, 15, 18, 22, 22, 25, 28, 30, 35, 40
2. Central Tendency:
- Mean: x̄ = Σx / n = 247 / 10 = 24.7
- Median: Ordered middle position average of items 5 & 6 = 23.5
- Mode: 22 (Frequency = 2)
3. Sum of Squared Deviations & Variance:
- SS = Σ(x_i - x̄)² = 694.1
- Sample Variance: s² = SS / (n - 1) = 694.1 / 9 = 77.1222
- Sample Standard Deviation: s = √s² = √77.1222 = 8.7819
4. Five-Number Summary & Outlier Fences:
- Min = 12, Q₁ = 18, Median = 23.5, Q₃ = 30, Max = 40
- IQR = Q₃ - Q₁ = 30 - 18 = 12
- Lower Fence = Q₁ - 1.5×IQR = 18 - 18 = 0
- Upper Fence = Q₃ + 1.5×IQR = 30 + 18 = 48
What is a Percentile?
A percentile is a score below which a given percentage of scores in its frequency distribution falls.
Formula & Step-by-Step Calculation
Percentile Rank = [ (Count < x) + 0.5 × (Count = x) ] / n × 100%
Position within sorted cumulative frequency.
Worked Step-by-Step Examples
Example 1
Score of 80 in a class where 16 of 20 students scored below
Solution: 80th Percentile
• (16 / 20) × 100% = 80%
Common Real-World & Academic Use Cases
