EXERCISE 1
1. In an IQ test (assume a normal distribution), the mean is 100 and the standard
deviation is 15. Find the percentage of pupils who have IQ:

a) More than 135

Z= x-m
σ
 135 – 100
15
=2.3333
=0.00989 x 100
=0.98 %

b) Less than 90
 90-100
15
=-0.666
=0.25
=0.25 x 100
=25 % is less than 90
c) Between 75 and 125
 75 – 100
15
= -1.6667
= 0.45154 x 100%
= 45%

 125-100
15
=1.666
= 0.45154
= 45%

2. In a normal distribution which contains 1000 scores. The mean is 60 and the standard
deviation is 8. Find the number of scores which is:
a) More than 76
 76 – 60
8
=2
= 0.022 x 1000
= 22
b) More than 50
 50 – 60
8
= -1.25
= 0.107 x 1000
=107

c) Less than 80
 80 – 60
8
= 2.5
=0.0062 x 1000
= 6.2

d) Between 48 and 52
 48 – 60
8
= -1.5
= 0.06681

 52 – 60
8
= -1
=0.15866
= 0.15866 – 0.06681 = 0.09185
= 0.09185 x 1000
= 91.85
e) Between 58 and 70
 58 – 60
8
= -0.25
= 0.09872
 70 – 60
8
= 1.25
= 0.39436
= 0.09872 - 0.39436 = - 0.295562
= - 0.295562 x 1000
= - 295.64

3. Find the area under the normal curve (bell curve), in between:
a) Mean and z=1.49
 1.49 – 0
1
=1.49
= 0.41390
= 0.43 x 100
= 43 %
b) Mean and z=1.26
 1.26 – 0
1
= 1.26
= 0.39617
= 0.40 x 100
= 40 %

c) z=1 and z=2

 1-0
1
=1
 2–0
1
=2
d) z= -1 and z = +1
 -1–0
1
= -1
 1–0
1
=1
= 0.34134 - 0.34134 = 0

e) z= -1 and z = -1.26
 -1–0
1
= -1
 -1.26 – 0
1
= -1.26
= 0.15866 – 0.10383 = 0.05483
= 0.055 x 100
= 5.5 %
