Normal distribution calculator

Calculate probabilities for normal distributions: P(X ≤ x), z-scores, inverse normal, and bell curve areas.

xμσ

Normal distribution

The bell curve N(μ, σ²) with mean μ and standard deviation σ. 68-95-99.7 rule: 68% within 1σ, 95% within 2σ, 99.7% within 3σ.

Z-score

z = (x − μ)/σ converts to standard normal N(0,1). Then use z-tables or CDF.

Example

Test scores: μ=75, σ=10. Score of 85: z = (85−75)/10 = 1. P(X ≤ 85) = P(Z ≤ 1) ≈ 0.8413.
