document.write( "1. **Applicants scoring lower:** Donnabelle scored higher than 8995 applicants.\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "2. **Applicants scoring the same or higher:** Since there were 10,000 applicants total, the number of applicants who scored the same or higher than Donnabelle is 10,000 - 8995 = 1005.\r<BR>\n" );
document.write( "\n" );
document.write( "3. **Percentile calculation:** Percentile is calculated as (number of scores below a given score / total number of scores) * 100. In Donnabelle's case, the number of scores below hers is 8995.\r<BR>\n" );

document.write( "   Percentile = (8995 / 10000) * 100 = 89.95\r<BR>\n" );
