Answer:

60th percentile = 23.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Put numbers in order from lowest to highest:

14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 15, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 23, 24, 24, 25, 25, 25, 26, 29, 29

Formula:

60th percentile = 60% x Total number of elements

We have 20 scores,

60th percentile = 60% x 20

                          = 0.60 x 20

                          = 12

the 60th percentile is the 12th number on the list

14, 14, 14, 15, 15, 15, 16, 18, 19, 21, 23, 23, 24, 24, 25, 25, 25, 26, 29, 29

The 60th percentile is between 23 and 24

23 + 24 / 2 = 23.5
