<PRE><B>Question 468448</B>
Can someone help me with this problem?
You can find the percentile that corresponds to a specific data value x by using the following formula.
Percentile of x = number of data values less than x divided by total number of data values (times 100) 
There have been 75 winners for an acting award. Nine winners were older than Jane Doe when they won the award. Find the percentile that corresponds to Jane Doe’s age. 
Round to the nearest whole number as needed.
---
9 are older
her age is &quot;x&quot;
That means 65 ages are younger
------
# of data values lower than Jane Doe = 65
Total # of data values = 75
---
(65/75)*100 = 86.67
-----
Rounding up you get 87%ile
