Quartiles, deciles, and percentiles divide a frequency distribution curve into equal areas. Quartiles divide the area into four equal parts, deciles divide into ten equal parts, and percentiles divide into 100 equal parts. To find these values, the data is arranged in ascending order and the median is found using the same procedure. A z-score represents the number of standard deviations a data point is from the mean. It is calculated by subtracting the mean from the value and dividing by the standard deviation. Z-scores can be positive or negative depending on whether the value is above or below the mean.

QUARTILES, DECILES,

PERCENTILES, AND Z-SCORE

By: Rahmadani Nur Permanawati


QUARTILES, DECILES, AND PERCENTILES

Median is the middle point in the axis frequency


distribution curve, and it divides the area under the curve
into two equal parts, having the same area in the left, and
in the right.
On similar basis, the area under the curve may be divided
into four equal areas or parts, called as quartiles. In the
same procedure divide the area for ten equally pieces
and each area is called deciles. Finally where divided the
area for hundred equally pieces and each area is called
percentiles.
The same procedure for division is done for finding percentiles
for any frequency distributed curve
P1 = first percentile
P2 = second percentile
P3 = third percentile
.
.
.
P99 = ninety ninth percentile
Where:
A1 = A2 = A3 = A4 = . . . .= A100

To find the quartiles, or deciles, or percentiles we follow the


same procedure to find the median. Arrangement the data in
ascending form only.

Z-SCORES
Z-Score
◦ A z-score represents the number of standard deviations a data
value falls above or below the mean.

◦ It is used as a way to measure relative position.


Z-Score Formula
(value  mean)
z  score 
st .deviation

xx
z
s
Please round z  scores
to 2 decimal places.
Can a z-score be negative?
YES
◦ A positive z-score means that a score is above
the mean.

◦ A negative z-score means that a score is below


the mean.

◦ A z-score of 0 means that a score is the exact


same as the mean.
Example

◦ A student scored a 65 on a math test that had a mean of 50 and


a standard deviation of 10. She scored 30 on a history test with a
mean of 25 and a standard deviation of 5. Compare her relative
position on the two tests.
Answer

value  mean
z  score 
st .deviation

◦ Math: z = (65-50)/10= 15/10 = 1.5

◦ History: z = (30-25)/5 = 5/5 = 1

◦ The student did better in math because the z-score was higher.
Example 2

◦ Find the z-score for each test and state which test is better.

◦ Test A: x  38 x  40 s5
◦ Test B: x  94 x  100 s  10
◦ Test A: z = (38-40)/5 = -0.4

◦ Test B: z = (94-100)/10 = -0.6

◦ Which is higher?

◦ Test A is higher, therefore it is better.

◦ It has a higher relative position.


Example 3

◦ A sample has a mean of 200 and a standard


deviation of 25. Find the value of x that
corresponds to a z-score of 2.35.
Answer: A sample has a mean of 200 and a standard deviation of
25. Find the value of x that corresponds to a z-score of 2.35.

z
 x  x

x  200
2.35 
25
x  200  (2.35)( 25)
x  200  58.75
x  258.75
