What is this module all about?
Statistical data analysis is the process of exploring, transforming, and modeling data in
order to obtain useful facts and information which aid in decision-making and in creating new
knowledge. In grade 7 mathematics, you have started analyzing data sets through the use of
measures of central tendency and variability. In this unit, you will learn more strategies on
statistical data analysis using the concepts of measures of position. The application of these
measures for analyzing data will depend on the nature of the statistical investigation being
conducted.
In this unit, you will also learn about the measures of position such as quartiles, deciles,
and percentiles. They will be useful in analyzing and interpreting data for your mini research.

The Quartiles (Ungrouped Data)
The quartiles are points that divide a ranked data into four equal parts. Each set of data
has three quartiles. First Quartile (lower quartile) is represented by Q1. Second Quartile
(middle quartile) is represented by Q2. Third Quartile (upper quartile) is represented by Q3.
Quartiles can be presented by the diagram below when the given data is arranged in
increasing order.
Solution:
List the data in increasing order.
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
15 19 23 25 37 39 43
Interquartile Range
The difference between the upper quartile (Q3) and lower quartile (Q1) in a set of data
is the interquartile range.
IR=Q3−Q1
So, in example 1, the interquartile range of the given set is:
IR=Q3−Q1
IR=39−19
IR=20
Try This!
Consider the data set B = {43, 44, 52, 37, 23, 68, 46, 59, 31}. Find:
a. The median b. Q1 and Q3 c. The interquartile range
Example 2:
Mr. O. Javier, a bank manager, is interested in the amount of time it takes his teller
service depositors. On a particular morning, he asked his secretary to record the service times for
15 customers. The times are given below (to the nearest minute).
6, 9, 7, 5, 15, 10, 9, 7, 4, 9, 10, 9, 8, 6, 7
Find:
a. The mean service time.
b. The median time.
c. The lower and upper quartile of the service times.
Solution:
The number of observations is n = 15. Arrange the data in an increasing order

data 4 5 6 6 7 7 7 8 9 9 9 9 10 10 15

Percentiles
18 JHS LEARNING MODULE --- Math 10 2021-2022
The percentiles are the score-points that divide a distribution into 100 equal parts. Each
set of data has 99 percentiles.
1% 1% 1% 1% … 1% 1% 1% 1%
LP P1 P2 P3 P4 … P96 P97 P98 P99 HP
The cth percentile, Pc, separates the lowest c% from the other (100 – c) %. For example,
the 10th percentile (P10) separates the lowest 10% from the other 90%; the 25 th percentile (P25)
separates the lowest 25% form the other 75%, while the 80 th percentile (P80) separates the lowest
80% from the other 20%. By definition, P25=Q1 ; P 50=Q 2 ; P75=Q 3 .
Solution:
Arrange the data from lowest to highest.
1 – 10 11 – 20 21 - 30 31 – 40 41 – 50
40 65 73 79 90
Finding Pc for ungrouped data is seldomly used because it involves a larger population.
Hence the formula for the computation of Pc for grouped data is generally preferred.
