- This document discusses measures of position such as quartiles, deciles, and percentiles. It provides definitions and formulas for calculating these measures.
- Quartiles divide a data set into four equal parts, with the first quartile (Q1) being the middle number between the lowest value and the median (Q2), and the third quartile (Q3) being the middle number between the median and the highest value.
- Examples are provided to demonstrate calculating quartiles for different data sets and interpreting the results.
