GROUPED DATA

MEASURES OF POSITION
 Objectives . . .

At the end of this session, the students

should be able to:

1. calculate measures of location other than

the measure of central tendency; and
2. interpret the measures of position of
grouped data.
Measures of Quartile
Position Divides the
distribution into 4
equal parts.

Decile Percentile
Divides the Divides the
distribution into 10 distribution into 100
equal parts. equal parts.
