Answer 15

Percentile rank of 14 is (9/15)(100) = 60 or 60th percentile

@pinkbubbles
why 9/15?
12/20 is more intuitive (I acknowledge it is the same number...)

Okay! :) @MrNood

Answer 18

ugh im sorry i dont get this at all !

Answer 19

it's fine! :D

Answer 20

\[\frac{ number of scores below x }{ n }\times100 = percentile rank\]
So x is 6 andnumber of scores below 6 is 7

Answer 21

so 7(6)/n(100)=percentile rank

Answer 22

\[\frac{ 7 }{ 6 }\times100=? \]

Answer 23

Correct! :D

116.67 ?
