Explanation

Given that the mean diameter is 125 mm and the standard deviation is 3 mm. We can find the probability that the diameter of a selected bearing is greater than 127 mm below.

We will first find the z score of the given value.

[tex]z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}=\frac{127-125}{3}=\frac{2}{3}=0.66667[/tex]

Using the z score calculator,

[tex]P\left(x>127\right)=0.2525[/tex]

Answer: 0.2525
