IQ scores (as measured by the Stanford-Binet intelligence test) in a certain country are normally distributed with a mean of 85 and a standard deviation of 19.

Answer #1

mean = 85, sd = 19

Total people = 3230000000

So, E(x) = 323000000*0.02906364 = 9387555.72

Hence, we expect that 9400000 (rounded to hundred thousand) to have IQ higher than 121.

Please comment if any doubt. Thank you.
