The number of pieces of popcorn in a large movie theatre popcorn bucket is normally distributed, with a mean of 1610 and a standard deviation of 10. Approximately what percentage of buckets contain between 1600 and 1620 pieces of popcorn?

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Our range is:

1600 to 1620

1610 - 10 to 1610 + 10

So the answer is 1

That means, that 68% is the answer.
