Question

Brianna's score on a national test exceeded the scores of 95,000 of the 125,000 students who took the test. What was her percentile rank?

(please elaborate)

Answer 1

To find the answer, divide 95,000 by 125,000. You should get 0.76. This means that her percentile rank is 76th percentile.

Answer 2

95,000 / 125,000 = 0.76

which means she was ranked in the upper quartile or the 76th percentile
