Measures of Position in Grouped Data

This document provides instructions for a statistics class activity where students will be divided into groups, record the weights of group members, and present their work. The objectives are for students to illustrate and calculate measures of position like percentiles, quartiles, and deciles in grouped data, interpret these measures, solve problems involving them, and appreciate their significance. Examples are provided for constructing a frequency distribution table from data and finding specific measures of position like the second quartile, 6th decile, and percentiles.
