The way you have this stated is impossible to solve. You did not give the population mean or standard deviation. This is important to know. After digging, I have found a question similar to this one and will answer it instead.
Three adult males in the 20�29 age group are randomly selected. The distribution of heights is normal and has mean 69 inches and a standard deviation of 3. Their heights are 70 inches, 66 inches, and 68 inches. (from Elementary Statistics: Picturing the World)
Z score for 70: (70-69)/3 = 1/3
Z score for 66: (66-69)/3 = -1
Z score for 68: (68-69)/3 = -1/3
None of these are unusual since it would have to have a z-score > 3
