Using the normal distribution, it is found that 0.26% of the items will either weigh less than 87 grams or more than 93 grams.
In a <em>normal distribution</em> with mean
and standard deviation
, the z-score of a measure X is given by:
- It measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean.
- After finding the z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score, which is the percentile of X.
In this problem:
- The mean is of 90 grams, hence
.
- The standard deviation is of 1 gram, hence
.
We want to find the probability of an item <u>differing more than 3 grams from the mean</u>, hence:



The probability is P(|Z| > 3), which is 2 multiplied by the p-value of Z = -3.
- Looking at the z-table, Z = -3 has a p-value of 0.0013.
2 x 0.0013 = 0.0026
0.0026 x 100% = 0.26%
0.26% of the items will either weigh less than 87 grams or more than 93 grams.

If I'm not mistaken by the question, we have

Multiply through by the LCM of all the denominators to clear the fractions. Since we have only one fraction, we multiply through by its LCM (3)


Putting all terms on the LHS (left hand side) and evaluating,
