Hi,
The scores on a standardized college entrance examination are found to be normally distributed.
The mean is 85 and the standard deviation is 11
What percent scored between 85(Note: the mean) and 107?
z = (107-85)/11 = 22/11 =
P(x < 207) = P(z< 2) = NORMSDIST(2) = .9773
.9773 - .5 = .4773 47.73% are between 85 and 107
