Yes.
We can't tell what you are doing wrong without seeing your work. Please show how you got your result, step by step. In particular, be sure to show the values you used for z, and tell us how you found probabilities.
Here are housekeeping matters. Most all helpers on this site are from North America therefore we often misread posts. For example, you wrote 2,1 which is confusing because we are expecting \(\displaystyle 2.1\). I guesss that by exception the question implies mean.So here is the problem I'm working on: X is normally distributed with Expectation=2,1 and Standard Deviation=0,6. Why do I end up with the answer P(1,5≤X≤2,7)=0? Am I doing something wrong?
The work is good until the final calculation. (Incidentally, I understood completely what you asked, in spite of some differences in terminology and notation; and here, it was very helpful that you showed all the details, including what you mean by G(z).)Certainly sir, thank you for your time. Please have a look at the picture below ( Calculation of P(X<1,5) and P(X>2,7) was also a part of the problem). I calculated z using the standard formula: (x-exp)/SD. Then I simply looked up the values for z in a table for cumulative standard normal distribution, which I used as shown in the picture.

If you notice that \(\displaystyle \sigma=0.6\), the S.D. so \(\displaystyle 1.5=2.1-\sigma<2.1+\sigma=2.7\).
So what percent is within one S.D. of the mean?

The probability that you want is G(1) - G(-1), but you accidentally replaced G(1) with 1 - G(1), which you had calculated for the previous part of the problem!
The correct calculation is 0.8413 - 0.1587. Right?
