Hello everyone,

I have some data about a given amount of cars (Column B) travelling at a specific speed (Column A). I am trying to figure out a formula that returns the speed driven by the 15th percentile of the vehicles.

I hope my question is clear enough.

Excel Facts

What do {} around a formula in the formula bar mean?
{Formula} means the formula was entered using Ctrl+Shift+Enter signifying an old-style array formula.
Hi,

Would something like this do the trick ?

Excel Formula:
=PERCENTILE(A2:A37,0.15)

Cheers
Rob

Thanks for your reply.

Unless i am mistaken, I think that your formula doesn't work for me because it doesn't consider the amount of cars (column B) in the calculation. What i am looking for is the speed (column A) driven by the 15th percentile of cars (column B)
