Rachel loves to bake cookies, but she has an old oven that has trouble maintaining a constant temperature. Assume the acceptable temperature range for making the cookies is 350 plus or minus 22 degrees. Six Sigma quality (3.4 defects per million units produced) is probably a bit much to ask of Rachels old oven.

a. What would the standard deviation in the temperature of her oven need to be if she settled for a Three Sigma level of quality?

b. If her oven exactly meets a Three Sigma quality level, what percentage of the time would her oven be operating at a temperature outside the acceptable range? Use Table 6-5.

please try answering b as I already have a.
