The 5-spam interval seems most informative. The 10-spam interval might also beinformative. The 2-spam interval is not informative.14.The 75th percentile rank has 75% of the scores at or below that score. In a set of50 scores, that would be (.75)(50) = the 37.5th score. Counting up from thebottom of the table, the 37.5th score is approximately 88. Using theformula, the score is
