 Rank the following data in increasing order and find the positions and values of both the 11th percentile and the 71st percentile.
7,5,3,2,9,6,4,3,8,5,5,8
----------------------------
Rank them from least, to greatest.
-----
Note: There are 12 data values.
---
0.11*12 = 1.32
Round up to get the location of the 11% element>
So the #2 element is the 11%ile data value.
===============================
0.71*12 = 8.52
Round up to get the location of the 71%ile element.
So the #9 element is the 71%ile data value.
