Value at Rick

Hi, I am really struggling with where to find the numbers on the standard distribution table. I have attempted questions in the revision kit where the model answer uses !.65 for 95% confidence level & 2.33 for 99% confidence level. i can not see these numbers on the distribution tables. can you please help how these are calculated

Anoopej is correct (although he should not be answering in this forum because he is not the tutor :-) ) You can find a lecture on value at risk which answers your question in the list of free lectures for Paper P4.

I am still really struggling with where to find the numbers on the standard distribution table. December 2014 exam had a 90% confidence level. Can you please help how it is calculated

If you watch the lecture that I referred to in my last response, I go through how to use the normal distribution tables in detail.
