Step 1
Consider X be the random variable representing the blood pressure readings. X follows normal distribution with mean 124 and standard deviation 9
Let upper and lower readings be "a" and "b" respectively.
The percentage of people having blood pressure less than "a" is 8%
The percentage of people having blood pressure greater than "b" is 8%
This implies that the percentage of people having blood pressure less than "b" is 92% (1-8% )
