A Japanese shoe company investigates the foot lengths of young men to help predict the number of each type of shoe size that the company should produce. The company finds that foot lengths for young men are normally distributed with a mean of 24.9 centimeters and a standard deviation of 1.05 centimeters. Based on the Empirical Rule and the given information, what percent of Japanese young men will have foot lengths greater than 27 centimeters?
