Where : P = Percentage of students
R = The number of the students T = The total number of students
The percentage of the improvement student’s vocabulary that get score above 70 through guessing game could be seen as follows:
1. In orientation test, P =
5 34
x 100 = 14.71
2. In cycle-I test,
P =
23 34
x 100 = 67.65
3. In cycle-II test,
P =
32 34
x 100 = 94.12
