The distribution of running times for a football team has a mean = 4.6 seconds and a standard deviation = 0.15 seconds. The fastest time was 4.4 seconds.

Is this data approximately normal?  

No, 3rd SD would be 4.15 seconds OR there should be around 9% of the running times that are faster than 4.4 if data is Normal
