GROUPED DATA
Data formed by aggregating
individual observations of a
variable into groups, so that
a frequency distribution of
these groups serves as a
convenient means of
summarizing or analyzing
the data.
QUARTILE:
DECILE:
PERCENTILE:
Where:
– lower boundary of the class
– total frequency
– cumulative frequency before
the class
– frequency of the class
– size of the class interval
–quartile, decile, or percentile
