#21 for a normal variable find the probability
For a normal variable \(X \sim N(\mu = 54.8, \sigma = 6.8)\), find the probability \(P(X < 52.7)\):

\[P(X < 52.7) = \, \boxed{\phantom{answer}}\]

(Round the answer to 4 decimal places)

---

**Instructions:**

1. Understand the given probability distribution of the normal variable \(X\).
2. Calculate the probability that \(X\) is less than 52.7 using the provided mean (\(\mu\)) and standard deviation (\(\sigma\)).
3. Use a standard normal distribution table or software to find the result.
4. Enter your answer rounded to four decimal places.

**Note:**

This exercise helps in understanding how to find probabilities using the properties of a normal distribution, which is essential in statistical analysis and decision-making processes.
