# normal distribution clarification

I was given this question in my probability homework.

Given a normal population whose

mean is 355355

standard deviation is 4242

Find the probability that a random sample of 55 has a mean between 362362 and 372372

According to the formula I am using:

P(Z>362−35542√5)P(Z >\frac{362-355}{\frac{42}{\sqrt{5}}})

P(Z>372−35542√5)P(Z >\frac{372-355}{\frac{42}{\sqrt{5}}})

From these calculations I get:

0.37−0.910.37-0.91

now I looked up these values in my z-table, which yields:

0.3557−0.18140.3557-0.1814

The result is 0.17430.1743

I have this as my answer but the system won’t accept it as a solution. So I don’t know where the mistake is. I had someone else do the same problem nd we both got the same answer.

Is 0.5371 from the z-table?

Sorry, I made a mistake. Check the answers. Those are much better explained. It seems the system has a mistake. If you would like further explanation, I’ll be glad to help.
