    0.5

    Explanation:

    In statistics, the z-score tells us the raw value's (X) relation to the mean value (μ), in terms of standard deviation (σ). It is calculated by the following formula:

    Z = (X - μ) / σ

    With the result in this example being 0.5, it tells us that our value (particular student's score) is half a standard deviation above the mean.
