Calculate the z-score for the given data points in the item using the equation,
 
                             z-score = (x - μ) / σ

where x is the data point, μ is the mean, and σ is the standard deviation.

Substituting,
             (47.7)     z-score = (47.7 - 52.5)/2.4 = -2

This translates to a percentile of 2.28%.

              (54.9)      z-score = (54.9 - 52.5)/2.4 = 1

This translates to a percentile of 84.13%. 

Then, subtract the calculate percentiles to give us the final answer of <em>81.85%.</em> 

Thus, 81.85% of the Siberian Husky sled dogs are expected to weigh between 47.7 and 54.9 lbs.
