Here's the Solution to this Question

\mu=45\\\sigma=4

Let the random variable X represent the math score.

p(35 \lt x\lt53)=p({35-45\over4}\lt Z\lt {53-45\over4})=p(-2.5\lt Z\lt 2)=\phi(2)-\phi(-2.5)=0.9772-0.0062=0.991

The probability that a score picked at random will lie between 35 and 53 is 0.991
