Given μ = 75, σ = 8:
calculate the 90% percentile ranking.

Setup our z-score

The z-score formula is:

z  =  x - μ
  σ

Rearranging this formula, we get:

x = μ + zσ

Find z-value for 90%:

We get a z-value of 1.282

Excel or Google Sheets formula:

Excel or Google Sheets formula:=NORMINV(0.9,75,8)

Evaluate z = 1.282, μ = 75, σ = 8

x = 75 + 1.282(8)

x = 75 + 10.256

x = 85.256
