Z-Table Lookup

The z-table probability runs from 0 to z and -z to 0

From the table below, we find our value of 0.47725

Since that represents ½ of the graph, we subtract our value from 0.5 → 0.5 - 0.47725

Z-table scores are below:

How does the Z Score Lookup Calculator work?

Free Z Score Lookup Calculator - Given a Z-score probability statement from the list below, this will determine the probability using the normal distribution z-table.
* P(z < a)
* P(z <= a)
* P(z > a)
* P(z >= a)
* P(a < z < b) Calculates z score probability
