    I thought I answered this previously.
a-c. Z = (score-mean)/SD
Find table in the back of your statistics text labeled something like "areas under normal distribution" to find the proportion/probability of each Z score. Multiply by 100.
d, e. Find table in the back of your statistics text labeled something like "areas under normal distribution" to find the proportion/probability (.20 and .30 respectively) and get each Z score. Insert into equation above to calculate each raw score.
