a. How many students are considered short if we considered the above 25% of the
height as the minimum height?
36 x 25% = 9
157 + 9 = 166
The total number of students considered short is 12.

b. How many of your classmates are in the height between 40% to 60%?
36 x 40% = 14.4
36 x 60% = 21.6 The total number of students whose heights are between
40% to 60% is 7.
157 + 21.6 = 178.6
157 + 14.4 = 171.4
