Standard Normal Distribution Practice

This document provides an example on how to use a standard normal distribution table to solve probability problems related to normally distributed data. It gives the details of an example where the class average on a test was 73.6% with a standard deviation of 4.65%, and asks the reader to use the standard normal distribution table to find the percentage of students who received a mark less than 79.4%, over 60%, and between 60-79%, which is a C- and a B+ grade range. It directs the reader to practice similar problems on pages 430-431, numbers 1-10 for additional practice.

Example #2:  Using the Standard Normal Distribution Table

The class average on a test is 73.6%, standard deviation is 
4.65.  Assuming marks are normally distributed, find the 
L percentage of students who received a mark:
E a) Less than 79.4%
S

b) Over 60%

c) Between a C­ and a B+ (Between 60% & 79%)
