Hey mate, for this one you would need to use a normal calculation. I hope you have a graphing calculator, If you dog to distributions and then to normalcdf, plug in 1975 as mean, 25 as sd, lower boundary as 1950 and upper boundary as 2050 and get the answer 0.839995 Now just round it and get your answer !
Hope I helped !
