Examples of round table in the following topics:

  • Normal probability table

    • A normal probability table is given in Appendix B.1 on page 407 and abbreviated in Table 3.8.
    • We use this table to identify the percentile corresponding to any particular Z score.
    • For instance, the percentile of Z = 0.43 is shown in row 0.4 and column 0.03 in Table 3.8: 0.6664, or the 66.64th percentile.
    • Generally, we round Z to two decimals, identify the proper row in the normal probability table up through the first decimal, and then determine the column representing the second decimal value.
    • For example, to identify Z for the 80th percentile, we look for the value closest to 0.8000 in the middle portion of the table: 0.7995.
