QUARTILE
Q1 = L + c

• L = true lower limit of Q1 class


• n = total no. of respondents
• = Q1 class
• F1 = cf< preceeding the Q1 class
• f1 = frequency of Q1 class
• c = class interval
Q1 = 137.5 + (11)

Q1 = 137.5 + (11)

Q1 = 137.5 +

Q1 = 137.5 + 0 .846

Q1 = 138.35
Md = Q2 = L + c

L = true lower limit of Q2 class


n = total no. of respondents
= Q2 class
F2 = cf< preceeding the Q2 class
f2 = frequency of Q2 class
c = class interval
Q2 = 137.5 + (11)

Q2 = 137.5 + (11)

Q2 = 137.5 + (11)

Q2 = 137.5 +

Q2 = 137.5 + 9.31

Q2 = 146.81
Q3 = L + c

L = true lower limit of Q3 class


n = total no. of respondents
= Q3 class

F3 = cf< preceeding the Q3 class

f3 = frequency of Q3 class
c = class interval
