The distribution is symmetrical, so find the z-score for -1.25 in your table and double it.

Note that, since 68% of data is between z=-1.0 and z=1.0, 32% is to the left of z=-1.0 or to the right of z=1.0. That makes answer choices b and d impossible; and a rough understanding of the normal distribution makes it easy to choose between answers a and c.
