We are given Mean = 18 and Standard Deviation = 2.5 and we need to find the values which is more than 3.0 standard deviations from the mean

Now, lets calculate the value which is 3 standard deviation(SD) more than the mean.

Mean + 3 SD = 18 + 3*2.5 = 18 + 7.5 = 25.5

Only value which is greater than 25.5 is 26.5

So, Answer will be E
Hope it helps!
