The method, explained
Sort values. Interpolate at index (n − 1) × percentile/100 (Type 7).
A WORKED EXAMPLE
Using numbers = 2, 4, 6, 8, percentile = 90 %, the result is 7.4. Change these example inputs to match your task; use the method above to check each step.
What to keep in mind
A descriptive or probability calculation under the stated assumptions. Check the sample design and model before interpreting results.
