cf
4. PR 62= x 100 %
n
To find cf or x, we use:

UB−LB C fs −C fb
= ; since PR62 falls between 56 – 62, then the UB and LB are 62.5
s−LB x−C fb
and 55.5, respectively.

Then:
UB = 62.5
LB = 55.5
s = 62
Cfs = 35
Cfb = 31

UB−LB C fs −C fb 62.5−55.5 35−31 7 4


 Therefore, = will be = then , =
s−LB x−C fb 62−55.5 x−31 6.5 x−31

 Finally, 7 x−217=26 → =x , thus cf =34.714

To find cf or x, we use:

UB−LB C fs −C fb
= ; since PR21 falls between 21 – 27, then the UB and LB are 27.5
s−LB x−C fb
and 20.5, respectively.

Then:
UB = 27.5
LB = 20.5
s = 21
Cfs = 4
Cfb = 1

UB−LB C fs −C fb 27.5−20.5 4−1 7 3


 Therefore, = will be = then , =

Then:
UB = 41.5
LB = 34.5
s = 37
Cfs =16
Cfb = 10

UB−LB C fs −C fb 41.5−34.5 16−10 7 6
