Given the following set of data, complete the table 1 5 8 6

and the highest score of the interval below.

For the Less than Cumulative Frequency, this is
obtained from the total number of Data (N) then subtract
it by the frequency of that interval.
100−14=86
Question: Where is the total number of Data (N), which
is 100, obtained from? Try counting how many data are
The Class Interval Scores must have the same size. In there from the given.
this case, the size is 10. How is it derived?
Example, the interval 81-90 consists of 81, 82, 83, 84, Now that you know where the entries for the table are
85, 86, 87, 88, 89 and 90. obtained, complete the table and compare your answers
Another way is by getting the difference as shown with the one from the answer key. Were you able to get
below: all the answers correctly?
Answer key:
91−81=10 → ← 100−90=10
← 20−10=10
11−1=10 →
Now, for the Frequency, all you need to do is count how
many data belongs to that said interval.
Example, 91-100.

The main course! N → total frequency
Find the Q1, Q2, D4, D6, P83. c f b → cumulative frequency of the class
interval below Qk class
f Q → frequency of Qk class
k
i → size of class interval
k → 1, 2, 3 for quartile, 1 to 9 for decile, 1 to
99 for percentile
To get the measures of position from a given Grouped
Data, you need to determine which Class Interval Score
to use first with the help of these formulas.

LB →20.5 N → 60
c f b → 12 f Q → 15
where k → the position k
N → the total number of frequency i → 20 k → 1 (for Q1)
Let’s substitute:

Let’s start with Q1 kN

Q1=20.5+ ( 15−12

( 20 )
Q =20.5+ ( ) ( 20 )
For Q1, our k is 1. How about N? We can get N using 3

two ways: 15
a. adding all Frequency Q1=20.5+ ( 0.2 )( 20 )
b. the Less than Cumulative Frequency of the first Q1=20.5+ 4
class interval Q1=24.5
Therefore, Q 1=24.5
Now, find the rest of the measures being asked, Q2, D4,
D6, P83, and compare your answers with the answer key.
Were you able to get all correctly?
