Step 1. K = 1 + 3.322 log n

K = 1 + 3.322 (log 40)

K = 1 + 3.322 (1.602)

K = 6.322 or 6

Step 2. R = 49 – 11

R = 38

Step 3. C=R/K

C = 38 / 6

C = 6.333 or 6

Step 4. Lower class limit of the first class is 11

1. From the above data, compute for the D4 and interpret your findings. (10 points)

For Ungrouped:

Step 1:

11, 12, 15, 15, 16, 17, 18, 18, 18, 19, 19, 19, 20, 20, 21, 21, 21, 22, 22, 23, 25, 25, 25, 25, 27,

27, 27, 28, 30, 31, 33, 35, 35, 38, 38, 39, 42, 44, 45, 49

Step 2:
Dk = nk/10

D4 = 40 (4) / 10

D4 = 16

Step 3:

Dk = [X(nk/10) + X(nk/10 + 1)] / 2

D4 = [21 + 22] / 2

D4 = 43 / 2

D4 = 21.5

The D4 is located in the 2nd Class and is equal to 21.5

For Grouped:

Dk = nk/10

D4 = 40 (4) / 10

D4 = 16

D4 is in Class 2

Dk = LCBDk + C { [ nk/10 - < CFDk-1 ] / fDk }

D4 = 16.5 + 6 { [ 40(4)/10 - 5 ] / 14}

D4 = 16.5 + 6 { [ 16 - 5 ] / 14}

D4 = 16.5 + 6 {11/ 14}

D4 = 16.5 + 4.71

D4 =21.21

The D4 is located in the 2nd Class and is equal to 21.21

(n.b. no points for completing the above table, but you need it complete to pursue the problems
mentioned below)
As a company policy, only those candidates who belongs to the upper 55% but below the P80
are shortlisted (i.e. with respect to their GWS score), determine then –

Pk = nk / 100

P80 = 150(80) / 100

P80 = 12,000 / 100

P80 = 120

P80 is in Class 4

Pk = LCBPk + C { [ nk/100 - < CFPk-1 ] / fPk }

P80 = 85.5 + 11 { [ 80(150)/100 - 83 ] / 38}

P80 = 85.5 + 11 { [ 120 - 83 ] / 38}

P80 = 85.5 + 11 { 37 / 38}

P80 = 85.5 + 10.71

P80 = 96.21
