Let 
denote the random variable for the weight of a swan. Then each swan in the sample of 36 selected by the farmer can be assigned a weight denoted by 
, each independently and identically distributed with distribution 
.
You want to find
Note that the left side is 36 times the average of the weights of the swans in the sample, i.e. the probability above is equivalent to
Recall that if
, then the sampling distribution 
with 
being the size of the sample.
Transforming to the standard normal distribution, you have
so that in this case,
and the probability is equivalent to
