Answer:

B. 11

Explanation:

The 50th percentile represents the halfway point of a data set and therefore, it is simply another name for the median.

We can use the following steps to find the median:

Step 1: Arrange the numbers in ascending numerical order:

10, 10, 11, 12, 13.

Step 2: Find the middle of the numbers:

Since there are 5 numbers, the median will have two numbers to the left and right of it. 11 satisfies this requirement so it is the median and thus the 50th percentile of the numbers.
