Look at your bell curve    one standard deviation above  and one standard deviation below covers approx 68 %

    54-13 = 41         54 + 13 = 67

so between   41 and 67    covers 68%

 

 

z score for 80    -    z score for 28 =

    80 is two SD             28 is - 2SD

           .9772         -      0228             =  .9544  =  ~ ~ 95%
