Answer:

6.7%

Explanation:

Mean = 32.7

Standard deviation = 1.8

Percentage of employees younger Than 30 years

Obtained the Standardized age, x < 30

Z = (x - mean) / standard deviation

Z = (30 - 32.7) / 1.8

Z = - 2.7 / 1.8

Z = - 1.5

Obtain the probability :

Using a Z probability calculator or standard normal table :

P(Z < - 1.5) = 0.066807

0.066807 * 100% = 6.7%
