The Empirical Rule, also known as the 68-95-99.7 rule, states the following for a normal distribution:

  • About 68% of values fall within 1 standard deviation from the mean.
  • About 95% of the values fall within two standard deviations from the mean.
  • Almost all of the values—about 99.7%—fall within 3 standard deviations from the mean.
