Jesse was ranked 64th in his graduating class of 180 students. At what percentile is Jesse's ranking? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)


______ th percentile

Respuesta :

They were 64th so 180-64 = 116 students were below them.

x = 116, y =1

(x + 0.5y / n) = 116 + 0.5*1 / 180 = 116.5 / 180 = 0.647 = 64.7%

Rounded to whole number = 65% = 65th percentile

Jesse's ranking is in the 65th percentile.

Since Jesse was ranked 64th in a class of 180, the number of people below him will be: = 180 - 64 = 116

Then, we'll use the formula (x + 0.5y/n) in solving the question. This will be:

= (x + 0.5y/n)

where,

x = 116

y = 1

n = 180

= [116 + 0.5×1)] / 180.

= 0.647

= 0.65

Therefore, he's in the 65th percentile.
