    1) To calculate quartiles from grouped data, determine the class interval that contains the 25th percentile (Q1 class) and 75th percentile (Q3 class). 2) Use the formula: Qk = LB + (kN/4 - cfb) * i/fQk, where LB is the lower boundary of the class, N is the total frequency, cfb is the cumulative frequency before the class, i is the class interval, fQk is the frequency of the class, and k is 1 for Q1 and 3 for Q3. 3) An example calculates Q1 for a set of

    Lesson 2:

    QUARTILE OF
    GROUPED DATA
    The Quartile for Grouped Data
     Recall that quartiles divide the distribution into four
    equal parts.
     The steps in computing the median are similar to that of Q1
    and Q3.
     In finding the median, we first need to determine the
    median class.
     In the same manner, the Q1 and the Q3 class must be
    determined first before computing for the value of
     Q1 and Q3.
    𝑵
     The Q1 class is the class interval where the( )th score is
    𝟒
    𝟑𝑵
    contained, while the class interval that contains the th
    𝟒
    score is the Q3 class.
    In computing the quartiles of grouped
    data, the following formula is used:

    𝑘𝑁
    Qk = LB + − cfb i
    4
    fQk
    where:
     LB = lower boundary of the Qk class
     N = sum of the frequency
     cfb = cumulative frequency of the class
    before the Qk class
     fQ1 = frequency of the Qk class
     i = size of class interval
     k = nth quartile, where k = 1, 2, and 3
    Example 1:
     The following are height in centimeters of 35
    Grade 10 students.

    124 126 134 138 142 143 136


    131 138 135 128 131 146 136
    133 120 136 126 137 139 137
    141 131 127 130 132 138 142
    140 136 132 133 138 140 144

     Construct a frequency distribution table.


     Calculate Q1.
    Solution:
     Step 1: Find the range.
    Range = largest value – lowest value
    Range = 146 – 120 = 26

     Step 2: Determine the class interval (i).


    𝑹𝒂𝒏𝒈𝒆
    i =
    𝑵𝒐.𝒐𝒇 𝒓𝒐𝒘𝒔 𝒚𝒐𝒖 𝒘𝒂𝒏𝒕 𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒂𝒗𝒆
    𝟐𝟔
    i = = 4.33 = 5
    𝟔
    (rounded up to the next integer)
    Solution:
     Step 3: Construct a frequency distribution table.

    145 – 149 144.5 1 35
    140 – 144 139.5 7 34
    135 – 139 134.5 12 27
    130 – 134 129.5 9 15
    125 – 129 124.5 4 6
    120 – 124 119.5 2 2
    ∑𝑵 = 𝟑𝟓

     Step 3: Construct a frequency distribution table.

    120 – 124 119.5 2 2
    ∑𝑵 = 𝟑𝟓
    Solution:
     Step 4: Calculate Q1.
    𝑵 𝟑𝟓
     Q1 class: = = 8.75
    𝟒 𝟒
    • LB = 129.5
    • N = 35
    • cfb = 6
    • fQ1 = 9 𝑁
    − cfb i
    • i=5 Q1 = LB + 4
    fQ1

    Q1 = 129.5 + 𝟖.𝟕𝟓𝟗 −𝟔 (5)


    Q1 = 131.05

    This means that 25% of the students have heights


    less than or equal to 131.05
    Worksheet #2.
     The following data are the scores of 45 Grade 10
    students in their Math Exam:
    38 50 41 45 48 40 40 41
    32 42 33 35 36 37 28 39
    29 32 41 43 24 37 42 41
    37 45 44 39 41 40 36 38
    28 41 48 50 25 32 30 44

     Construct a frequency distribution table and


    compute for Q1.
