Which 25%? The top 25%? The bottom? Something else?

What did you get when you applied the z-score table with half a deviation?

C. What proportion would be expected to score 68 and above
How did you get started on this one?

D. What proportion would be expected to score between 55 and 65 ?
What value did you get for "everybody below 1.5 deviations"? What value did you get for "everybody below 0.5 deviations"?

E. What proportion score above 35?
How did you get started on this one, using 1.5 deviations again?

F. What score separates the third on such test?
Which third?

Please be complete. Thank you! ;)
