How to Calculate Percentile

Complete 4-Step Mathematical Methodology with Worked Step-by-Step Practical Example

1

Sort the Data

Arrange the data points in ascending order (from smallest to largest). Let the sorted dataset be represented as:

x1, x2, x3, ... xn

Where n is the total number of data points in the dataset.

2

Calculate Percentile Rank

Find the rank position r for the desired percentile p using the formula:

r = (p / 100) × (n - 1) + 1

p is the desired percentile (e.g., 90 for 90th percentile).
n is the total number of items.

3

Extract or Interpolate Value

Split the calculated rank r into its integer component (ri = ⌊r⌋) and fractional component (rf = r - ri):

P = xri
P = xri + rf × (xri+1 - xri)

4. Practical Step-by-Step Example

📌 Problem Statement: To find the 70th percentile (p = 70) for a dataset of 5 numbers: 15, 30, 20, 50, 40.

The ordered dataset (n = 5) is:

x1=15, x2=20, x3=30, x4=40, x5=50

Substitute p = 70 and n = 5 into formula:

r = (70/100) × (5-1) + 1 = 0.7 × 4 + 1 = 3.8

Deconstruct rank r = 3.8:
Integer (ri) = 3 | Fraction (rf) = 0.8
Locate x3 = 30 & x4 = 40

P = 30 + 0.8 × (40 - 30) = 38

Verified Final Formulas

The complete set of mathematically sound equations required to evaluate a percentile is:

Rank (r) = (p / 100) × (n - 1) + 1
Percentile Value (P) = xri + rf × (xri+1 - xri)
