Question: Write the percentage of the area shaded in the normally distributed curve shown.



A ) 4.7%
B ) 2.35%
C ) 95%
D ) 99.7%

Steps to derive

1 The area of the curve about the mean under 1 standard deviation is about 68%, under 2 standard deviations is about 95% and under 3 standard deviations is 99.7%.

2 So, the shaded area =  99.7 - 95 2 = 2.35%.



Hence the right answer is Option B
