Find the percentile for 58.
Find the percentile for 25.
Counting from the bottom of the list, there are 18 data values less than 58. There is one value of 58.
x = 18 and
y = 1.
(100) =
(100) = 63.80. 58 is the 64
th percentile.
Counting from the bottom of the list, there are three data values less than 25. There is one value of 25.
x = 3 and
y = 1.
(100) =
(100) = 12.07. Twenty-five is the 12
th percentile.
A percentile indicates the relative standing of a data value when data are sorted into numerical order from smallest to largest. Percentages of data values are less than or equal to the pth percentile. For example, 15% of data values are less than or equal to the 15
th percentile.
Low percentiles always correspond to lower data values.
High percentiles always correspond to higher data values.
A percentile may or may not correspond to a value judgment about whether it is "good" or "bad." The interpretation of whether a certain percentile is "good" or "bad" depends on the context of the situation to which the data applies. In some situations, a low percentile would be considered "good;" in other contexts a high percentile might be considered "good". In many situations, there is no value judgment that applies.
Understanding how to interpret percentiles properly is important not only when describing data, but also when calculating probabilities in later chapters of this text.
Guideline
When writing the interpretation of a percentile in the context of the given data, the sentence should contain the following information.
information about the context of the situation being considered
the data value (value of the variable) that represents the percentile
the percent of individuals or items with data values below the percentile
the percent of individuals or items with data values above the percentile.
On a timed math test, the first quartile for time it took to finish the exam was 35 minutes. Interpret the first quartile in the context of this situation.
Twenty-five percent of students finished the exam in 35 minutes or less.
Seventy-five percent of students finished the exam in 35 minutes or more.
A low percentile could be considered good, as finishing more quickly on a timed exam is desirable. (If you take too long, you might not be able to finish.)
Communication is effective because it allows individuals to share ideas, thoughts, and information with others.

nature is an hereditary factor while nurture is an environmental factor which constitute an individual personality. so if an individual's parent has a deviant behavior and was also brought up in an deviant environment, observation of the behavior and the inborn trait we make the individual deviant.
