 Decile is a quantile
that divides the
DECILE distribution of the
distribution into ten
equal parts.
 The data set has
nine deciles
which are
DECILE represented by
D1, D2, D3, D4, D5,
D6, D7, D8, D9.

Find the 3rd

decile or D3 of
the following
test scores of
a random 35, 42, 40, 28, 15,
sample of ten
students.
23, 33, 20, 18,

 First, arrange the scores in
ascending order:

15, 18, 20, 23, 28,

28, 33, 35, 40, 42

By interpolation, find the value of 3.3th

position:
23 − 20 = 3
3 × 0.3 = 0.9 20 + 0.9 = 20.9
Conclusion: This means that 30% of the
distribution is below 20.9 and that 70% is
above 20.9.

By interpolation, find the value of 2.6 th

position:
38 − 37 = 1
1 × 0.6 = 0.6 37 + 0.6 = 37.6
Conclusion: This means that 20% of the
distribution is below 37.6 and that 70% is
above 37.6.
We will calculate second, and seventh

68 − 67 = 1
