Explanation / Answer

Z score for tallest man

Z tall=score-mean/sd

=255-177.78/8.62

= 77.22/8.62

= 8.958237

z score for tall man=8.96

Zscore shortest man:

Zshort=42.5-177.78/8.62

= -135.28/8.62

=- 15.69374

Z short=-15.69

since the z score of the tallest man is Z=8.96 and the z score for the shortest man is Z=-15.69

the shortest man had the height that was more extreme.
