Percentiles
For any whole number P (between 1 and 99), the Pth percentile of a distribution is a value such that P% of the data fall at or below it.
The percent falling above the Pth percentile will be (100 – P)%.

Quartiles
• Percentiles that divide the data into fourths
• Q1 = 25th percentile
• Q2 = the median
• Q3 = 75th percentile

Computing Quartiles
• Order the data from smallest to largest.
• Find the median, the second quartile.
• Find the median of the data falling below Q2. This is the first quartile.
• Find the median of the data falling above Q2. This is the third quartile.

Making a Box-and-Whisker Plot
• Draw a vertical scale including the lowest and highest values.
• To the right of the scale, draw a box from Q1 to Q3.
• Draw a solid line through the box at the median.
• Draw lines (whiskers) from Q1 to the lowest and from Q3 to the highest values.
