In a class of 60 students, Heather has a rank of 16. At what percentile is she?

To determine Heather's percentile rank, you can use the formula:

Percentile Rank = (Number of scores below Heather's rank / Total number of scores) * 100

In this case:
Number of scores below Heather's rank = 16 - 1 = 15 (since rank starts from 1)
Total number of scores = 60

Plugging the values into the formula:
Percentile Rank = (15 / 60) * 100
Percentile Rank = 0.25 * 100
Percentile Rank = 25

Therefore, Heather is at the 25th percentile in her class.

To determine the percentile at which Heather is ranked, you need to compare her rank to the total number of students in the class. Here's how you can calculate it:

1. Calculate the percentile ranking: The formula to calculate percentile is (number of students below + 0.5 × number of students at the same rank) ÷ total number of students × 100.

2. Substitute the given values: In this case, Heather's rank is 16, and there are 60 students in the class.

Let's plug in the values and calculate the percentile:
(16 + 0.5 × 0) ÷ 60 × 100 = (16 + 0) ÷ 60 × 100 = 16 ÷ 60 × 100 = 26.67

Therefore, Heather is at the 26.67th percentile in her class.

well, 16/60 = 26.67%

so, what % scored less?
