Find probability that runner will complete road race

Reference no: EM13120557

Let x denote the time it takes to run a road race. Suppose x is approximately normally distributed with a mean of 190 minutes and a standard deviation of 21 minutes. If one runner is selected at random, what is the probability that this runner will complete this road race in less than 231.58 minutes?
