what is the proportion of the total area under the normal curve within plus and minus 2 standard deviations?


 

 
There is 47.5% of the area between the short black line at z=-2 
and the y-axis, and there is also 47.5% of the area between
the y-axis and the short black line at z=2.  That's a total
of 95%.
