1. DESILE
(from Wahyu Utomo)
If the data set is divided into 10 equal parts, it is obtained nine divisors and each divisor is called
a decile (D1, D2,…., D9). Deciles determined by:
a. Arrange data in order of value
b. Find the location of the decile
c. Determine the decile value
Where:
• b : lower class edge Di is the class where Di is located.
• p : class length Di
• n : sample size or the number of data
• F : the sum of all frequencies before class Di
• f : class frequency Di
PERCENTILE
If the dataset is divided into 100 equal parts, we get 99 the divisor and each divisor are called
percentiles (P1, P2,…., p99). Percentile determined by:
a. Arrange data in order of value
b. Find the location of the percentile
c. Determine the percentile value
where:
b : lower class edge Pi where the Pi located
p : class length Pi
n : sample size or number of data
F : sum all frequencies before class Pi
f : class frequency Pi
DISPERSION SIZE
The three data groups have the same arithmetic mean, namely:
𝑥̅ = 50
However, when plotted in graphical form, it will produce a different data distribution pattern. This
is the focus of data dispersion.
2. AVERAGE DEVIATION
The average deviation is: the sum of the absolute values of the difference between all values
with
the average value divided by the number of data.
There are formulas for grouped and non-grouped data.
Ungrouped data :
Grouped data :
Example :
2. VARIANCE
The variance is the average of the difference between all data values and the calculated mean
value.
For ungrouped :

DEVIATION STANDARDS

For the Grouped data :
Or
Example :
Therefore :
Calculating Variance and Standard Deviation can also use Code (U).
Example :
The skewness of the data distribution indicates the degree or measure of the asymmetry of a
data distribution.
1. Pearson Formula
Or
α = Pearson slope skewness
if :
α = 0, symmetrical distribution
α < 0, the data is skewed to the left
α > 0, the data is skewed to the right
Or
if :
α3 = 0, symmetrical distribution
α3 < 0, the data is skewed to the left
α3 > 0, the data is skewed to the right
3. Bowley Formula
