Suppose IQ scores in your community are normally distributed with a mean of 96 and a standard deviation of 15.
The z-score tells you how many units above the average (if Z-score is positive) or below the average (if Z-score is negative) any IQ score is.
Find the IQ score that corresponds to the following z-scores. 

Use the formula Z=Xμσ\displaystyle {Z}=\frac{{{X}-\mu}}{\sigma} 
  where μ\displaystyle \mu  is the mean, σ\displaystyle \sigma  is the standard deviation, and X\displaystyle {X}  is the IQ score.

  1.  Z=0.9,X=\displaystyle {Z}=-{0.9},{X}= 

  2.  Z=2.26,X=\displaystyle {Z}={2.26},{X}=
