The time to complete a standardized exam in the BYU-Idaho Testing Center is approximately normal with a mean of 70 minutes and a standard deviation of 10 minutes. Using the 68-95-99.7 rule, approximately what percentage of students will complete the exam in under fifty minutes? Give your answer accurate to one decimal place. (Example: 24.7)

the answer is 2.5 but how?

A testing center at the university wants to compare the average test taking time of undergraduate students on a standardized entrance exam to graduate school. Four departments are selected, and from each department, 25 students are randomly sampled (100 students total). The center then checks for test taking time (in minutes), and compares the average test taking time of students using ANOVA. Complete the following one-factor ANOVA summary table using alpha = .05. Based on the results, do students in...
