The data in the table is describing the heights of the Boston Celtics.

Question

Data Set: 81,81,81,78,80,82,77,77,83,84,81,78,80,74,81,71,74,75,83,84,73,79

a. What percentage of the players fall between 78 in –83 in, inclusive?

b. What percentage of the players are below 74 in, exclusive?

Answer 1

There are several ways to find the percentages:

1. You can count the number of players that fall in the height range 78 in - 83 in. Then divide it with the total number of entries in the dataset. Repeat the same steps for players whose heights are below 74 in.
2. Another way to do is to use pandas in python if your data set is going to be very large.
