There are 9 deciles. These divide the sorted values
into 10 equal parts
10% of the values fall below D1 60% of the values fall below D6
20% of the values fall below D2 70% of the values fall below D7
30% of the values fall below D3 80% of the values fall below D8
40% of the values fall below D4
90% of the values fall below D9
50% of the values fall below D5
are values that divide a set of data
into 100 equal parts
