Arranging the data into descending order:
R 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
S 44 42 40 37 36 35 32 29 28 25 22 21 20 17 15 13 12 10 9 8
Clearly, the 14th rank has the score of 17, R= 14 and N= 20
Thus, Percentile ranking,
PR=100 100 R50
N
= 100 – 100x14 – 50/ 20
= 100 – 1400 – 50/50
=100 – 1350/20
=100 – 67.5
=32.5th
