A. Review

Prayer.
Good morning class.
Good morning Sir!
How’s your day?
Fine Sir!
Good. So, last meeting we are done with our discussion in
Deciles for Ungrouped data right? Yes Sir!.

Okay. As a recall, who can state what Deciles are? The deciles are the nine score points which divide the
distribution into ten equal parts.

Thank you. And what is the formula in finding the value on a

data with n elements? 𝑘(𝑛 + 1)
𝐷𝑘 =
10
Where n is what? Total number of data/elements sir!

And K is? nth decile Sir!

Good. Now let us consider this example. Everybody please read. Find the 4th decile or D4 of the following test scores of a
random sample of ten students:
30, 41, 39, 28, 17, 24, 35, 21, 19, and 16.

Thank you, now who can solve it on the board? 4(10 + 1) 44

𝐷4 = = = 4.4 ≈ 4
10 10
Thank you. Please explain your work. What did you do first?
How did you come up with 4? Is 4 now your final answer? First, I arranged the distribution into ascending order. And
then count the number of the distribution. And then
proceed to calculating for the D4.
The final answer is 21, since the D4 is on the 4th element
of the distribution.
Okay class. Do you agree with ____? Is his/her answer correct?
Yes Sir!
Yes, it is correct. Very good ____. You may now take your seat.
Now class, are there any more questions about our previous
topic? None Sir!

I bet you are very much ready for our next topic.
B. Motivation

But before we proceed to our next topic, let’s play a game.

Aren’t you excited?
Excited Sir!
Good. This game is called “4-minute letter search Riddle
Game”. Do you have any idea about this game? None Sir!

Okay. In this game all you have to do is to read each statement

being presented closely and search for the missing letter as
suggested by each statement with this corresponding numbers to
the word on the board. Our main goal here is to find the missing
word. Is that understood? Yes Sir!

(1) I am the first letter of the one who picked a peck of

pickled pepper
(2,5,10) You'll find me in bear but not in boar
(3) I am the first letter of right
(4) You’ll find me a couple of times in
(6) I appeared more than twice in innovation
(7)
(8)
You cannot find me in car because I’m in cart
I am the first letter in the statement
P E R C E N T I L E S
(9) I am in the middle of the ceiling
(11) I have the sound of sea 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11

Okay. Very good grade ten. Now what word did we find?
Percentiles Sir!
Good. So, do you now have any idea about our topic this
morning? Yes Sir!

Good.

C. Presentation
Our lesson for today is about Percentiles of Ungrouped Data.
But before we proceed. Please read our lesson objective,
altogether. Go.
At the end of one hour discussion, 75% of grade 10
students will be able to: Illustrate, Calculate, and Interpret
the percentile for ungrouped data
Thank you. So, do you have any idea about what percentiles None Sir!
are?

Okay, going back to our previous lessons, the quartile and the Quartiles are the score points that divide the distribution
deciles, again, what are the definitions of quartile and decile? into four equal parts. And the deciles are the nine core
points that divide the distribution into ten equal parts.

And who can draw illustrations showing quartiles and deciles?

Q1 Q2 Q3

D1 D2 D3 D4 D5 D6 D7 D8 D9

Very good. So, notice that in the illustrations for quartiles and 3 points for quartile and 9 points for decile ma’am
deciles, how many points are there?
Divide the distribution into four equal parts and ten equal
And what do these points do? parts ma’am.

Very good. And again, what are the formulas in finding the nth
quartile and nth decile of the data set? Who can write it on the 𝑘
board? 𝑄𝑘 = (𝑛 + 1)
4
𝑘(𝑛 + 1)
𝐷𝑘 =
10

Very good.
So, what if we are going to divide the distribution into a
hundred equal parts?

50
How many points do you think are there that divides the 99 Sir!
distribution into a hundred equal parts?
Since in quartile, there are 3 points that divide the
Why? distribution into 4 and in deciles, there are 9 points that
divide the distribution into 10. So, if we divide the
distribution into one hundred equal parts, there will be 99
points.

Very good. And that is the definition of percentiles.

So, again, who can state the definition of a percentile based on Percentiles are the 99 score points that divide the
the given illustrations? distribution into one hundred equal parts.
Very good. As easy as that. Now everybody please read the
definition of percentile. The percentiles are the ninety-nine score points which
divide a distribution into one hundred equal parts so that
each part represents the data set.

Thank you. Points are symbolized by P1, P2, P3, …P99 that divide
the distribution into 100 equal parts. And illustrated as,

P1 P2 P98 P99
...
Largest
Smallest
Data data
Value value

Again, what do we call to this points (P1, P2, …. P99)? These are
score points that divides what? Score points that divide the distribution into hundred equal
parts Sir!

Very good. So that each part here represents the data set. Each
part is 1%.

Now what do you think will be the formula in finding the nth
percentile of the elements?
Let’s go back to the formulas that are being written on the
board, what have you observed in the formula for quartile? What
about in deciles? Why do you think is it divided into four and Because quartiles divides the data into 4 equal parts and
ten? decile into ten equal parts Sir!

100 parts Sir!

How about here in percentiles, in how many parts was the data
being divided?
𝑘(𝑛+1)
𝐷𝑘 = 100 ma’am.
Now what do you think will be the formula in finding the nth
percentile of the data or elements? Nth percentile and Total number of distribution Sir!
Who can write it on the board?
Find the 30th percentile or P30 of the following test scores
Very good. And what is our k and n? of a random sample of ten students:
35, 42, 40, 28, 15, 23, 33, 20, 18, and 28.
Good. Now let us consider this example. Everybody please read.
10 Sir!

Thank you. What is our n here in our example? 30th percentile Sir!

And what is our k? What is asked? What shall we find here? Arrange the data into ascending order Sir!
Good. But before we solve for the 30th percentile, what shall we
do first? What shall we do to our data or distribution? 15, 18, 20, 23, 28, 28, 33, 35, 40, 42

Okay. So who can do that on the board?

Good. After arranging the data into ascending order, what shall Yes Sir!
we do next? Can we now proceed on finding the data value on
30th percentile? 30(10 + 1)
𝑃30 = = 3.33 ≈ 3
100
Who can solve it on the board?
Yes Sir!

Class. Is the answer of _____ correct? No Sir!.

Good. And 3 is our what? Is this our final answer? P30 is the 3rd element Sir!

What does this indicates? 20 ma’am.

And what is our 3rd element in our distribution?

Very good.

Okay let us now proceed to the presentations of each group.
Presentors of group 1.
Yes Sir!
Okay thank you group 1. Class, are the answers of group 1 (presents their works)
correct?

Okay, very good group 1. Next, presentors of group 2. Yes Sir!

(presents their works)
Okay thank you group 2. Class, are the answers of group 2
correct?
Yes Sir!
Very good group 2. Next, presentors of group 3. (presents their works)

Thank you group 3. Class, do you agree with the answers of Yes Sir!
group 3? Is it correct? (clap5x)

Very good group 3. Next, presentors of the last group.

Thank you. Class, are the answers of group 4 correct?
Okay. Very good everyone. Let us give ourselves five claps.
Now looking at your works, what did you do to answer your
activity? From the group 1? What did you do first?
Okay good. What about the group 2? Did you do the same first?
We first arranged the data into ascending order ma’am.
Yes Sir!
We counted the numbers of data to get our n ma’am and
then proceed to finding the P5 and P98 using the formula.
Because 𝑃75 is the 10th element and is 9000 and 𝑃33 is the
4th element and is 1600.

Good. So, after arranging the data into ascending order, what did
you do next? From the group 3?
Good. and afterwards, from the group 4, why 9000 and 1600 The percentiles are the ninety-nine score points which
here are your final answers? divide a distribution into one hundred equal parts so that
each part represents the data set.

Very good.
3. Abstraction 𝑘(𝑛 + 1)
So again, who can define what percentiles are? 𝐷𝑘 =
100
What are percentiles? nth percentile and The total number of distribution.

Very good. And what is our formula in finding the nth percentile
of the elements?

Where k and n is? Say, N(p) is the pth percentile.

And a number p is a whole number between 0 and 100. So
Good. Now, are there any more questions about our topic this p-percent of the values are less than or equal to the value
morning? N(p) and (100-p) percent of the values are greater than N(p).

4. Application

Okay let us consider this situation. Everybody please read.

Who can explain this statement? Base on your own

understanding, what do you think this state all about?

Say, if some value x is the 75th percentile,

X X Sir!

75th percentile Sir!

75th
Smallest Largest
Data value percentile
data
value
So, in this illustration, what is our N(p) or data value? 75th percentile Sir!

And what is our p? In what pth percentile does data value x lies?

Good. Now, who can explain or interpret this illustration? Using (possible answers)
the statement given earlier.
(follow up questions)
Again, where does our data value x lies? In what position?

Good. And using the statement we have just read a while ago, p-
percent of the values are less than or equal to the value N(p), who Sam is the supervisor in one big company in Cadiz city.
can interpret re-state this illustration? His salary is in the 70th percentile. Should Sam be glad
about his salary or not? Why?
75% of all the values in the data set are less than or equal to x
and that 25% of the data values are greater than x.
Sam’s salary
Is that understood?

Okay let’s take another example. Everybody please read.

70th percentile

Okay thank you. Now who can do the illustration on the board
showing the salary of Sam in 70th percentile?

70% of the employees receive a salary that is less than or

So what does this mean? Based on the given definition a while equal to his salary and 30% of the employees receive a
ago, what does this mean? salary that is greater than his salary.
Follow up Questions:
Are there any employees receive salaries that are less than his
salary? How many percent? How about employees having Yes Sir!
salaries greater than him? How many percent? Now who can
state the answer completely? None.

Yes Sir!

What about in the question in our example? Should Sam be glad

about his salary?

Very good. Any more questions?

Is this understood?
IV. Evaluation

Direction: Give what is asked in each item below:

The following are the test scores of a random sample of 15 students:

19,35,42,28,27,15,23,16,24,33,20,21,18,39,28
