Do you need to calculate PERCENTILE and QUARTILE in Excel? If so, this example will show you how to do it. We will be using the scores in the table below as our example.
The green fill is just for illustration purposes - your data will likely not be green! First, we'll calculate the PERCENTILE of each score. Then, we'll calculate the QUARTILE of each score. Let's get started!

PERCENTILES in Excel
To calculate the PERCENTILE of a score in Excel, you can use the PERCENTILE function. The syntax for the PERCENTILE function is as follows:
=PERCENTILE(array, k)
where array is the range of cells that contains your data and k is the percentile value that you want to calculate.
For example, if we wanted to calculate the 50th percentile (also known as the median) of our data, we would use the following formula:
=PERCENTILE(A12:A21,0.50)
which would give us a result of 60. Notice that we have used 0.50 instead of 50% because the PERCENTILE function requires you to input a decimal between 0 and
You can also use the PERCENTILE function to calculate other percentiles, such as the 75th percentile. To do this, you would simply change the k value in the formula to 0.75. Try it out for yourself!
QUARTILES in Excel
To calculate the QUARTILE of a score in Excel, you can use the QUARTILE function. The syntax for the QUARTILE function is as follows:
=QUARTILE(array, k)
where array is the range of cells that contains your data and k is the quartile value that you want to calculate.
For example, if we wanted to calculate the first quartile (also known as the 25th percentile) of our data, we would use the following formula:
=QUARTILE(A12:A21,0.25)
which would give us a result of 52. You can also use the QUARTILE function to calculate other quartiles, such as the third quartile. To do this, you would simply change the k value in the formula to 0.75. Try it out for yourself!
Conclusion
Now that you know how to use PERCENTILE and QUARTILE in Excel, go ahead and try it out on your own data! These functions can be used to calculate a variety of different percentile and quartile values. Experiment with different k values to see what you can discover about your data. Thanks for watching!
