We have the value of population parameter p = 0.1
This means q = 0.9
Sample Size = n = 115

The formula for the standard deviation to be used is:


s= \sqrt{ (pq)/(n) }

Using the values, we get:


s= \sqrt{ (0.1*0.9)/(115) } \\ \\ s=0.028

So, option D gives the correct value of Standard Deviation of the normal curve
