In statistics, the 68–95–99.7 rule, also known as the empirical rule, and sometimes abbreviated 3sr, is a shorthand used to remember the percentage of values that lie within an interval estimate in a normal distribution: approximately 68%, 95%, and 99.7% of the values lie within one, two, and three standard deviations of the mean, respectively.
The top grade, A, is given here for performance that exceeds the mean by more than 1.5 standard deviations, a B for performance between 0.5 and 1.5 standard deviations above the mean, and so on. [18] Regardless of the absolute performance of the students, the best score in the group receives a top grade and the worst score receives a failing grade.
Rubidium ( 37 Rb) has 36 isotopes, with naturally occurring rubidium being composed of just two isotopes; 85 Rb (72.2%) and the radioactive 87 Rb (27.8%). 87 Rb has a half-life of 4.92 × 1010 years. It readily substitutes for potassium in minerals, and is therefore fairly widespread. 87 Rb has been used extensively in dating rocks; 87 Rb ...
In mathematics, a percentage (from Latin per centum 'by a hundred') is a number or ratio expressed as a fraction of 100. It is often denoted using the percent sign (%), [ 1] although the abbreviations pct., pct, and sometimes pc are also used. [ 2] A percentage is a dimensionless number (pure number), primarily used for expressing proportions ...

The 25th percentile is also known as the first quartile (Q 1), the 50th percentile as the median or second quartile (Q 2), and the 75th percentile as the third quartile (Q 3). For example, the 50th percentile (median) is the score below (or at or below, depending on the definition) which 50% of the scores in the distribution are found.
Grading in education is the process of applying standardized measurements for varying levels of achievements in a course. Grades can be assigned as letters (usually A to F), as a range (for example, 1 to 6), as a percentage, or as a number out of a possible total (often out of 100). [ 1]
868: 83 1 ⁄ 3 zolotnik. Imperial Russian coinage between 1797 [10] and 1885. [11] 835: A standard predominantly used in Germany after 1884, and for some Dutch silver; and for the minting of coins in countries of the Latin Monetary Union; 833: (5 ⁄ 6) a common standard for continental silver especially among the Dutch, Swedish, and Germans
