**Understanding Standard Normal Distribution: Probability Calculations**

When dealing with a standard normal distribution, you can find specific probabilities for given z-values. Below are three tasks to help you practice.

1. **Probability Calculation for Z less than 2.53:**
   \[
   P(Z < 2.53) = \_\_\_
   \]
   Calculate the probability that a standard normal variable is less than 2.53 and round your answer to three decimal places.

2. **Probability Calculation for Z greater than 1:**
   \[
   P(Z > 1) = \_\_\_
   \]
   Compute the probability that a standard normal variable is greater than 1. Make sure to round your answer to three decimal places.

3. **Probability Calculation for Z between -2.28 and -0.61:**
   \[
   P(-2.28 < Z < -0.61) = \_\_\_
   \]
   Determine the probability that the standard normal variable falls between -2.28 and -0.61. Round the answer to three decimal places.

Use a standard normal distribution table or statistical software to find these probabilities accurately.
