Multiply this number by 100 to get percentages. Then go to the x axis to find the second decimal number (0.07 in this case). Find the first two digits on the y axis (0.6 in our example).
For George’s example we need to use the 2nd table as his test result corresponds to a positive z-score of 0.67.įinding a corresponding probability is fairly easy. If a z-score calculation yields a negative standardized score refer to the 1st table, when positive used the 2nd table. If you noticed there are two z-tables with negative and positive values. standard normal distribution table) comes handy. Now, in order to figure out how well George did on the test we need to determine the percentage of his peers who go higher and lower scores.
