Help with the Empirical Rule?

I'm trying to do something regarding the empirical rule.

If my question was: A university class has on average 100 students show up every day for class. What would the 68-95-99.7 rule imply? Could I even try using the 68-95-99.7 rule or is too vague? Trying to compute 1,2, and 3 standard deviations. Any help?

Answer 1

If standard deviations are not given or the data is not provided to calculate the standard deviation, then it not possible to compute the standard deviations and use them in empirical rule.
