Steps in finding the
Measures of Position
1. Arrange the scores from lowest to highest.
2. Used the formula of measures of position
to determine the location of the score.
Example:
Given: 40, 24, 27, 15, 41, 32, 50, 22, 36
Arrange: 15, 22, 24, 27, 32, 36, 40, 41, 50
Find Quartile 1: n=9

Example:
Given: 16, 22, 5, 12, 17, 8, 6, 25, 20
Arrange: 5, 6, 8, 12, 16, 17, 20, 22, 25

Example:
Given: 15,15,33,17,30,30,20,60,45,15
Arrange: 15,15,15,17,20,30,30,33,45,60
Find Percentile 80: n = 10
