S1 Edexcel Question Help

Can Someone help me with a question on the S1 Gold paper 4. Its Q3e i cant figure out how to do it.
I did it but I get the wrong answer so I must not have done it right ... Anyways I did this:

mean=10.8


σ=7.46


σ+10.8=18.3


(18.3−μ)/7.46=1


1 on table=0.8413


1−0.8413=0.1587


0.1587×70 to get that percentage of 70.I get 11 not 12 :frown:


Edit : you have to interpolate but I don't know why they are using the values they are.
