Answer:

The correct option is (D).

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentiles are statistical measures that are used to interpret data. It represents the data value which is more that a specific percentage of the data set.

The <em>n</em>th percentile of a data set is the value that is more that <em>n</em>% of the data set.

⇒ It is provided that a test-taker's score was at the 94th percentile for their verbal grade.

This statement implies that the test taker scored a mark more than 94% of the other test-takers, i.e. he\she performed better than 94% of the other test-takers in the verbal grade.

⇒ Also the test-taker's score was at the 16th percentile for their quantitative grade.

This implies that the test taker scored a mark more than 16% of the other test-takers, i.e. he\she performed better than 16% of the other test-takers in the quantitative grade.

Thus, the correct option is (D).
