Answer 1

Answer: about 95.4%

Step-by-step explanation: 47.7% of scores are within two standard deviations to the right of the mean. Use that percent and the fact that the graph is symmetric to find the percentage of scores within two standard deviations to the right and left of the mean.

47.7% + 47.7% = 95.4%
