    1. The document analyzes descriptive statistics for verbal ability test scores of 50 accountancy students at La Consolacion University Philippines. 2. Key findings include a mean score of 45.5, median of 44.5, and mode of 42.83. The range was 53, with the first quartile at 37 and third quartile at 52.71. 3. Analysis of standard deviation, skewness, and kurtosis found the distribution to be negatively skewed and platykurtic, with 34 students scoring between 44.78 and 46.22.

    1. Solving for the value of Mean (m)


    M = 𝑋0+𝑖 (∑𝑓𝑥"1" )/𝑁)
    M = 42 + 5 (35/50)
    M = 42 + 5 (0.7)
    M = 42 + 3.5
    M = 45.5
    The computed Mean Value is 45.5 which shows the average of the 50 accountancy students of
    LCUP on the verbal ability test.
    2. Solving for Median

    𝑁
    −𝑓𝑏
    Mdn = l+𝑖 ( 2 )
    𝑓𝑝
    50
    −𝑓𝑏
    Mdn = 44.5 + 5 ( 2 )
    𝑓𝑝
    50
    −𝑓𝑏
    2
    Mdn = 44.5+5 ( )
    𝑓𝑝

    Mdn = 44.5 +5 (0)


    Mdn = 44.5 + 0
    Mdn = 44.5
    A computed Median of 44.5 reflects that 58% of the accountancy students has the most verbal
    ability while 58% of the accountancy students has less verbal ability.

    3. Solving for the value of Mode (Mo)


    𝑑
    1
    Mo = l+𝑖 ( )
    𝑑1+ 𝑑2
    2
    Mo = 39.5 + 5( )
    2+1
    Mo = 39.5 + 5 (0.666)
    Mo = 39.5 + 3.33
    Mo = 42.83

    The most scored obtained by the students lies on the range of 40-44 with 9 accountancy
    students based on the computed mode of 42.83.

    4. Solving for the Range (R)


    R = HS – LS
    R = 78 – 25
    R = 53

    The Range of the score listed from the students of accountancy students is 53.

    5. Quartile Deviation

    Solving for First Quartile (Q1)

    Q1 = l + i [ (N/4 - fb) / fp ]
    𝑄1 = l + 5 [ (N/4 - fb) / fp ]
    12.5 −9
    𝑄1 = 34.5 ( )
    7
    3.5
    𝑄1 = 34.5+5 ( )
    7

    𝑄1 = 34.5+5 (0.5)

    𝑄1 = 34.5 + 2.5

    𝑄1 = 37

    Solving for the Second Quartile (Q2)

    Q2 = l + i [ (3N/4 - fb) / fp ]
    Q2 = 44.5 + 5 (2(50)/ 4 - fb) / fp ]
    Q2 = 44.5 + 5 (25- fb/fp
    Q2 = 44.5 + 5 (25- 25/ 8)
    Q2 = 44.5 +5 (0)
    Q2 = 44.5
    Solving for the Third Quartile (Q3)

    3𝑁
    −𝑓𝑏
    𝑄3 = l+𝑖 ( 4 𝑓𝑝 )
    3(50)
    −𝑓𝑏

    𝑄3 = 49.5 + 5 ( 𝑓𝑝
    )
    37.5 −𝑓𝑏
    𝑄3 =49.5 + 5( 𝑓𝑝
    )
    37.5−33
    𝑄3 =49.5+5 ( )
    7
    𝑄3 =49.5+5 (0.642)
    𝑄3 = 44.5 + 3.21
    𝑄3 = 52.71

    𝑄3 −𝑄1
    𝑄=

    52.71−37.0
    𝑄=

    52.71−37.0

    𝑄 = 7.85
    Q2 44.5 Q2 44.5
    -Q 7.85 +Q 7.85
    36.65 52.35

    The researcher can conclude that the score of the 26 accountancy


    student based on their verbal ability test score is greater than or equal to 36.65
    but less than or equal to 52.35. More over about 12 accountacy student falls
    under Q1, which is 37 and the remaining 12 lies above Q3 that is 52.71.

    The verbal ability score of the 34 accountancy student is greater than or equal to 44.78 but less than or
    equal to 46.22. (44.78 < σ< 46.22)

    7. Skewness

    =
    11.584
    38810.21
    =
    17981.84
    = 2.15
    The distribution of the verbal ability of the accountancy student is negatively skewed, having a
    skewness value of 2.15.

    8. Kurtosis
    M3 = ∑ ( X- M)4
    N
    = 1940510.68
    50
    = 38810.21
    The distribution of verbal ability of the accountancy student is heterogenous, having the value
    of below 4.0, hence the kurtosis is platykurtic.

    Part II – ANALYSIS

    Fifty accountancy students of LCUP has an average verbal ability score of 45. 5, a computed
    median of 44.5 which means 58% of the accountancy students has the most verbal ability while 58% of
    the accountancy students has less verbal ability.
    Mostly of the accountancy student got the score of 42.83 which represents the mode of the
    datum which means that 52 is the most common verbal ability among the given sample population. The
    range of the population from 25 to 78 is 53, but in terms of Interquartile Range, the scores of the 26
    accountancy student based on their verbal ability score is greater or equal to 36.65 but less than or
    equal to 52.35. Moreover, about 12 accountancy student fall under Q1 which is 37 and the remaining 12
    lies above Q3, that is 52.71.
    Based on the computed standard deviation, the verbal ability test score of the 34 accountancy
    student is greater than or equal to 44.78 but less than or equal to 46.22.
    The distribution of the verbal ability of the accountancy student is negatively skewed, having a
    skewness value of 2.15, we can assume that mostly of the students got scores that is higher than the
    mean and fewer students that is lower than the mean. The distribution of verbal ability score is
    heterogenous, having the value of below 4.0, hence the kurtosis is platykurtic, the scores are
    widespread and varies greatly.
