Quartiles for Ungrouped

Data
 Quartiles

• A quartile divides data into three points—a lower quartile,

median, and upper quartile—to form four groups of the
dataset. The lower quartile, or first quartile, is denoted as
Q1 and is the middle number that falls between the
smallest value of the dataset and the median. The second
quartile, Q2, is also the median.
 FORMULA

value of the observation, where i=1,2,3

 EXAMPLE

1.Calculate the Quartile1 of given data 3,13,11,11,5,4,2.

Arranging Observations in the ascending order, We get :
2,3,4,5,11,11,13
2.The is 7.
 SOLUTION

value of observation
=3
FOR Quartile 2
 Example

• Calculate the Quartile 2 of given data 3,13,11,11,5,4,2.

Arranging Observations in the ascending order, We get :
2,3,4,5,11,11,13
• The number of values in the distribution is 7.

 ACTIVITY

1.Find the quartile 1,2,3 of the given data.

95,85.100,65,88,79,74,12,36,69,75,150
 ANSWERS

1. QUARTILE 1= 69.5
2. QUARTILE 2= 77
3. QUARTILE 3= 93.25
 Decile

• Are nine values that split data in 10 equal parts. Each

decile represents a multiple of 10% of the total data.
• D1,D2,d3 and so on until d9 represents the (10%)the until
the (90th) of the data.
 FORMULA

D value of the observation, where

i=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
 EXAMPLE
• Calculate the Decile of given data 3,13,11,11,5,4,2.
Arranging Observations in the ascending order, We get :

 PERCENTILE

• Are 99 values that split data in 100 equal parts. Each

percentile represents a multiple of 1% of the total value
P1,P2,p3 and until P99, represents the (1%) th until the
(99%)th of the data.
