Chapter 8 AP Stats

A different species of cockroach has weights that are approximately Normally distributed with a mean of 50 grams. After measuring the weights of many of these cockroaches, a lab assistant reports that 14% of the cockroaches weigh more than 55 grams. Based on this report, what is the approximate standard deviation of weight for this species of cockroaches?
