Answer:

lower than Amanda:  816 students

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalent way in which to state this problem is:  Find the area under the standard normal curve to the left (below) 940.

Most modern calculators have built in distribution functions.

In this case I entered the single command   normalcdf(-1000,940, 850, 100)

and obtained 0.816.

In this particular situation, this means that 0.816(1000 students) scored lower than Amanda:  816 students.
