Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the percentile of a woman with a foot length of 20.04 centimeters in Japan, we can use the Z-score formula:

Z=x-y/o

where:

-x  centimeters (foot length of the woman)

- y centimeters (average foot length for adult women in Japan)

-o  centimeters (standard deviation)

Calculating the Z-score:

Z=20.04-22.8/0.92

=(-2.76)/0.92

=(-3)

With a Z-score of -3, we can find the percentile using a standard normal distribution table or calculator. A Z-score of -3 corresponds to approximately the 0.13th percentile.

Therefore, a woman with a foot length of 20.04 centimeters would be in the 0.13th percentile based on the given data for adult women in Japan.
