    The document discusses calculating deciles from ungrouped data. It explains that deciles divide a distribution into 10 equal parts by finding the 9 score values that separate the data. It then provides an example of arranging 9 test scores in ascending order and using linear interpolation to calculate the requested deciles, such as the third, sixth and seventh deciles from the sorted list.

    Deciles of Ungrouped data

    The deciles are the nine score values that divides


    the distribution/observations in 10 equal parts.
    Example 2: Using Linear Interpolation
    Method
    Try:
    The list below shows the test scores of 9 students
    18, 21, 20, 17, 15, 29, 27, 22, 28

    a. Find the 3rd decile


    b. Find the 6th decile
    c. Find the 7th decile
    Assignment:
    Arrange the scores in ascending order. And find D9
    15, 18, 20, 23, 28, 28, 33, 35, 40, 42

    a. Find the third decile.


    b. Find the D9.
    c. Find the seventh decile.
