Answer #1

Please don't hesitate to give a "thumbs up " for the answer, in case you're satisfied with it.

Sample mean = (1.6+5.2+2.8+3.7+4.0)/5 = 3.46

Sample std deviation = sqrt(((1.6-3.46)^2 + ... + (4-3.46)^2 / 5-1) )= 1.35

Z score of 2.8 is (x-mu)/sigma = (2.8-3.46)/1.35 = -0.49

Percentile rank of 2.8 = 20 percentile ( why? out of the 5 numbers it is the 2nd highest number, and therefore will be the upper cutoff for the 20th percentile)
