Probability Calculations Using the Normal Distribution – Template
Enter data only in the shaded cells
This spreadsheet is designed to calculate the probability of values equal to, or less than, a desired x value,
given the mean and standard deviation of a normally distributed variable. It uses the cumulative normal distribution
Enter the mean of the distribution in shaded cell D8 and the standard deviation in shaded cell D9. below.
Enter the desired X-value in shaded cell D10, below. The calculated z-value and probability will be seen in D11 and D12.

X-value Calculations Given Probabilities Using the Inverse Normal Distribution – Template
This spreadsheet is designed to calculate the X-value based on probability of values equal to, or less than a desired x value,
of a normally distributed variable. It requires input of a known mean and standard deviation and uses the inverse of the cumulative normal distribution
Enter the mean of the distribution in cell D9 and the standard deviation in cell D10, below. Enter the desired probability in cell D11, and the calculated x-value will be seen in D12.

Z and X-value Calculations Given Probabilites, Using the Inverse Normal Distribution – Template
This spreadsheet is designed to calculate the z-value based on probability of values equal to, or less than,
an equivalent x-value of a normally distributed variable. It uses the inverse of the cumulative normal distribution.
Enter the desired probability of the Z-value or less in the shaded cell D9, below. The calculated z-value will be seen in cell D10.
