B)____% of the men are between 161cm and 177cm? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! one standard deviation from the mean accounts for about 68% of the set
two standard deviations from the mean account for about 95%
and three standard deviations from the mean account for about 99.7%.
A) 3SD...99.7%
B) 1SD...68%
