The Zscore of the third grader is - 2

Given that :

Mean = 52 inches

Standard deviation = 2.5 inches

Height of third grader, X = 47 inches

The Z score for a normal distribution is given as :

Z score = (X - mean) / standard deviation)

Zscore = (47 - 52) / 2.5

Zscore = (-5) / 2.5

Zscore = - 2

Hence, the Zscore is - 2
