You can use a Z table.
One such table is found here:
https://www.ztable.net/
The table should be found at the back of your stats textbook.
For exams, your teacher will likely hand them out if s/he intends you to use it.

Locate the row that starts with 1.9
Circle this row of values. Or use two pieces of paper to cover up the other rows. Make sure to not cover up the top row.
Highlight the column that has 0.07 at the top
The value at this row and column combo is roughly 0.97558
It means that P(Z < 1.97) = 0.97558 approximately
Around 97.558% of the area under the standard normal Z curve is to the left of z = 1.97
