The z-Table

by M. Bourne

The z-Table on this page indicates the area to the right of the

This table is very useful for finding probabilities when the event
in question follows a normal distribution.

Example

In the standard normal curve to the right, the mean is 0 and the
standard deviation is 1.

The green shaded area in the diagram represents the area that
is within 1.45 standard deviations from the mean. The area of
this shaded portion is 0.4265 (or 42.65% of the total area under
the curve).

To get this area of 0.4265, we read down the left side of the
table for the standard deviation's first 2 digits (the whole number
and the first number after the decimal point, in this case 1.4),
then we read across the table for the "0.05" part (the top row
represents the 2nd decimal place of the standard deviation that
we are interested in.)

We have:

(left column) 1.4 + (top row) 0.05 = 1.45 standard deviations

The area represented by 1.45 standard deviations to the right of

You can see how to find the value of 0.4265 in the full z-table
below. Follow the "1.4" row across and the "0.05" column down
until they meet at 0.4265.
