AT THE END OF THE DISCUSSION, AT LEAST 80% STUDENTS ARE EXPECTED TO CALCULATE A SPECIFIED
MEASURES OF POSITION (E.G. 90TH PERCENTILE) A SET OF DATA:

•CALCULATE DECILES FOR UNGROUPED DATA.

•CALCULATE DECILES FOR GROUPED DATA
 DECILES

•THESE ARE SIMILAR TO QUARTILES. BUT WHILE

QUARTILES SORT DATA INTO FOUR QUARTERS, DECILES
SORT DATA INTO 10 EQUAL PARTS: THE 10TH, 20TH, 30TH,
40TH, 50TH, 60TH, 70TH, 80TH, 90TH AND 100TH PERCENTILES.
DECILES FOR UNGROUPED
DATA
MEASURES OF POSITION
STEPS IN FINDING THE VALUE OF DECILES OF N DATA
1. ARRANGE THE N DATA ENTRIES FROM LOWEST TO HIGHEST
(ASCENDING ORDER).
2. CALCULATE THE POSITION OF THE KTTH DECILE USING ITS
CORRESPONDING FORMULA. ROUND OFF TO THE NEAREST INTEGER IF
NECESSARY.
3. LOCATE THE VALUE OF THE SPECIFIED MEASURES OF POSITION IN
THE GIVEN SET OF DATA.
FORMULA IN DECILE FOR UNGROUPED DATA
WHERE:
D(K)= VALUE OF THE X(N+1)TH
TERM IN THE DATA SET.
K= TOTAL NUMBER OF DATA
THAT NEEDS TO BE CALCULATED
AND RANGES FROM 1-9.
N= TOTAL NUMBER OF DATA.
DECILES FOR GROUPED DATA
MEASURES OF POSITION
STEPS IN FINDING THE VALUE OF DECILES OF N DATA
1. Find the position of the kth class.
2. Find the class interval where the kth score
is contained.
3. Compute using the appropriate formula.
