Answer 1

Percentile rank of 17 is 78.571 %

Explanation:

The work experiences (in years) of 14 employees of a company are:

Data : 8, 21 , 11 , 4 , 14 , 17 , 11 , 8 , 8 , 7 , 2 , 11 , 27 , 6

Arranged data : 2,4,6,7,8,8,8,11,11,11,14,17,21,27

Formula : Percentile rank of x =
`\frac{\text{No. of values before x}}{\text{Total no. of values}} * 100`

We are supposed to find he percentile rank for the employee with 17 years of experience

No. of values before 17 =11

So,Percentile rank of 17 =
`(11)/(14) * 100=78.571\%`

Hence Percentile rank of 17 is 78.571 %
