MATH / PROBABILITY
Approximate the cumulative normal probability at an observation from a supplied mean and standard deviation. Review the equation, substituted values, result context, and modelling limits in one guided workspace.
Use boundary
Approximate the cumulative normal probability at an observation from a supplied mean and standard deviation. The page evaluates the displayed equation from your supplied values and presents both symbolic and substituted KaTeX working so the arithmetic can be checked.
P(X <= x) = [1 + erf((x - mu)/(sigma sqrt(2)))] / 2

Use boundary
The probability is meaningful only when a normal distribution is an appropriate model.
Use internally consistent units and retain extra precision when carrying the result into another calculation.
