Z-Score Formula

z = (X - μ) / σ

  • z: Z-score (standard score)
  • X: Raw score (observed value)
  • μ: Mean (average)
  • σ: Standard deviation

Interpretation

  • z = 0: Value equals the mean
  • z > 0: Value is above the mean
  • z < 0: Value is below the mean
  • |z| < 1: Within 1 standard deviation (68% of data)
  • |z| < 2: Within 2 standard deviations (95% of data)
  • |z| < 3: Within 3 standard deviations (99.7% of data)

Examples

Example 1: Calculate Z-Score

Input: X = 75, μ = 70, σ = 10

Result: z = (75 - 70) / 10 = 0.5

Example 2: Calculate Raw Score

Input: z = 1.5, μ = 70, σ = 10

Result: X = 70 + (1.5 × 10) = 85
