Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rule of 68-95-99.7 states that approximately 68% of the values fall within one standard deviation of the mean, 95% of the values fall within two standard deviations of the mean, and 99.7% of the values fall within three standard deviations of the mean. Therefore, not all values fall between ±3 standard deviations of the mean in a normal distribution.
