Question 617493
 So let's say we do calculate standard scores for batting averages, and the first player has a standard score of 1.85 wereas the other player has a score of 2.86. What do those scores tell you about the two players? 
---
The one with the standard score of 2.86 has a batting average
tha is 2.86 standard deviations above the mean batting average.
---
The other has a batting average that is 1.85 standard deviations
above the mean.
