z-score = (raw-score minus mean) / standard deviation.
68% will fall within the first standard deviation, 95% within the first two standard deviations, and 99.7% will fall within the first three standard deviations of the mean.
It is also referred to as the Three Sigma Rule, or the 68-95-99.7 Rule.
your solutions are:
a. 99.7% of the men are between 155 cm and 191 cm.
