    This document contains a table with age groups, their frequencies, lower bounds (LB) of each group, and cumulative frequencies (cfb). It also contains 3 calculations: 1) Calculating the first quartile (Q1) of the data which is 36 2) Calculating the value for age group D7 which is 43.46 3) Calculating the value for data point P78 which is 49.40 It concludes that a person aged 56 does not belong to the upper 20% of the age distribution based on the calculation shown.

    If Carla is one of the members of the community and her age is 56,
    she does not belong to the upper 20% age group. The 20% of 90 is 18,
    and if we subtract 18 from 90, the result is 72. Since her age is only 56,
    she does not belong to the upper 20%.

    90 x .20 = 18
    90 - 18 = 72
    (The range of the 20% age group is from 72 to 90)
