Z-Test Calculator

Find the one-sample z-statistic.

z-statistic 2

Formula: z = (x̄ − μ) ÷ (σ ÷ √n)

Step-by-step with your numbers:
1. Values used:
2. Sample mean = 105
3. Population mean = 100
4. Population SD = 15
5. Sample size = 36
6.
7. z-statistic = 2
Did we solve your problem today?

The z-test compares a sample mean to a population mean when the population SD is known.

The math behind it

z = (sample mean − population mean) ÷ (population SD ÷ √n).

Worked example

x̄ 105, μ 100, σ 15, n 36 → z 2.0.

FAQ

z vs t?

Use z when the population SD is known and n is large; otherwise use t.
