The top 15% (85th percentile) is the cutoff value x such that

\mathbb P(X\le x)=\mathbb P\left(\dfrac{X-250}{40}\le\dfrac{x-250}{40}\right)=\mathbb P(Z\le z)=0.85

where z is the corresponding cutoff for the standardized normal distribution. We have z\approx1.0364, and so

\dfrac{x-250}{40}=z\implies x\approx291.456
