+If n is not a whole number, round it up to the nearest whole number and go to A. If n is a whole number, go to B.
+A) Count the values in your data set from left to right (from the smallest to the largest value) until you reach n. The corresponding value in your data set is the kth percentile.
+B) Count the values in your data set from left to right until you reach n. The kth percentile is the average of that corresponding value in your data set and the value that directly follows it.
