Area under the standard normal curve that lies between #Z=0.00# and #Z=1.51# is #0.4345#

Explanation:

Z-score is expressed in terms of standard deviation from their means. These z-scores have a distribution with a mean of #0# and a standard deviation of #1#.

When we talk of area under standard normal curve that lies between #Z=0# and #Z=1.51#, it is the likelihood or probability that a bunch of data will fall between mean say #mu# (as #Z=0#) and #mu+1.51sigma# (as #Z=1.51#), if the distribution is normal. Graphically this may be seen from image below, where the shaded region shows this probability. The complete area under the curve is #1# unit and one can use tables or MSExcel to find this area. In the instant case it is #0.4345#
