What is the difference between a percentile and a quartile?

A quartile divides a grouping into four. The first quartile will have the first 25% of the group, the second quartile will have the second 25% of the group, the third quartile will have the third 25% of the group and the last quartile will have the last 25% of the group. For example if a classroom had 20 students who had all taken a test, you could line them up, the top 5 marks would be in the first quartile, the next five would be in the second quartile, the next 5 would be in the third quartile, and the 5 students with the lowest marks would be in the last quartile. Similarly, a percentile divides a grouping, except the group is divided into 100. Each 1% represent 1 percentile.

How do you find the inter-quartile of 7 numbers?

The interquartile range is the difference between the Lower quartile and the upper quartile. Obviously you need to be able to find these values. Haylock (2006) explains how to do this for difficult size groups in mathematics explained for primary teachers. He explains the position of the lower quartile is a quarter of (n+1) and that of the upper quartile is three-quarters of (n+1). So for a group of 7 numbers, you find a quarter of 8, which is 2. Therefore the number in second place is the lower quartile. Three quarters of 8 is 6 and so the number in 6th position is the upper quartile. Now take the lower quartile from the upper quartile.


Why is there more emphasis on the 1st and 3rd quartile than on the second?

There is not, so the question is misguided.


How do you find the inter quartile range?
