![**Radiation Levels of Cell Phones**
**Instruction:**
Use the accompanying radiation levels (measured in W/kg) for 50 different cell phones. Find the percentile corresponding to 0.60 W/kg.
1. Click the icon to view the radiation levels.
**Radiation Levels Table:**
```
0.21, 0.25, 0.28, 0.45, 0.57, 0.60, 0.65, 0.69, 0.76, 0.86,
0.86, 0.88, 0.89, 0.92, 0.93, 0.97, 0.98, 0.99, 1.05, 1.12,
1.12, 1.13, 1.14, 1.14, 1.16, 1.17, 1.17, 1.19, 1.21, 1.21,
1.23, 1.24, 1.26, 1.26, 1.28, 1.30, 1.31, 1.32, 1.32, 1.32,
1.32, 1.33, 1.33, 1.38, 1.43, 1.45, 1.47, 1.47, 1.52, 1.56
```
**Task:**
The percentile corresponding to 0.60 W/kg is [ ].
**Note:**
Round to the nearest whole number as needed.
**Explanation:**
To determine the percentile for 0.60 W/kg, first, we need to arrange the data in ascending order, which has already been done in the provided table. Next, we count the number of data points that are less than or equal to 0.60 W/kg and use the percentile formula to calculate:
\[ \text{Percentile} = \left( \frac{\text{Number of values below or equal to the target value}}{\text{Total number of values}} \right) \times 100 \]
From the table, it's observed that 0.60 W/kg is the 6th value in the ordered list:
\[ \text{Percentile} = \left( \frac{6}{50} \right) \](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F552c0758-5203-44a0-803c-786f9a348f99%2F8e010c1d-72ce-403b-a75b-b0a36f17f8d6%2Fyj2vv_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
