THE NUMBER OF SIZES OF 50 FAMILIES IN

BARANGAY CABAROAN

INTRODUCTION:
Barangay Cabaroan is the barangay where I lived and still
living for the past 16 years. And as I know there are more than
300 families here in our place and in that more than 300
families. And in every house holds there are more than 2
people living, so over all there are more than 1,000 people
living here. I surveyed the number of sizes of 50 families in our
barangay. And as what my teacher said, Mrs. Elizabeth Alarcon,
I need to get the average/mean of the sizes that we need to
survey. And I also need to get the first quartile (Q 1), third decile
(D3) and 50th percentile (P50). Furthermore, here is the family
names and the sizes that I surveyed.

Average/Mean
A/M = sum of the terms
number of the terms
= 196
50
= the mean/average of all the sizes that I surveyed is
3.92.

1st Quartile (Q1)

Q1 = 1 (n+1) =3+(.75x0)
4
=3.75
= 1 (50+1)
4 So, the first quartile is equal to 3. 75

= 1 (51)
4
= 51
4

12.75

3rd Decile (D3)

D3 = 3 (n+1) = 153 = 3 + (.3x0)
10 10
= 3.3
= 3 (50+1) 15.3
10

= 3 (51) So, the 30% of the sized of families is less

than
10 or equal to 3.3.
50TH Percentile (P50)
P50 = 50 (n+1) = 4 + (.5x0)
100
= 4.5
= 50 (50+1)
100
So, the 50th percentile is 4.5.
= 50 (51)

= 2550
