How do I use the NORMSINV function in Google Sheets?

The NORMSINV function in Google Sheets is a statistical function that calculates the inverse of the normal cumulative distribution for a given probability. This function is useful for finding the z-score corresponding to a given probability, which can be used in various statistical analyses. To use the NORMSINV function, simply enter the desired probability value as the argument and the function will return the corresponding z-score. This function is commonly used in financial and scientific calculations and can be accessed through the “functions” menu in Google Sheets.

NORMSINV

Returns the value of the inverse standard normal distribution function for a specified value.

Sample Usage

NORMSINV(.75)

NORMSINV(A2)

Syntax

NORMSINV(x)

  • x – The input to the inverse standard normal distribution function.

Notes

  • The “standard” normal distribution function is the normal distribution function with mean of 0 and variance (and therefore standard deviation) of 1.
  • x must be greater than 0 and less than 1 or a #NUM! error will occur.
