Standardisation. Given the probability you can find the z value from the table which is 0 in this case.

Alternatively you can just use your calculator using the invNorm function

Probability is 0.5 so your z value is 0 (refer to the pic I just uploaded)

Standardisation:
If X~N(μ, σ²) and Z = (X − μ)/σ
Then Z~N(0, 1)

This is the table. Blue is the probability, red is the z-value

Oh ok but is it always 0 if the probability is 0.5?

That table is for the standard Normal distribution N~(0,1)

p(x<μ) = 0.5 for all Normal distribution since the curve is symmetrical about the mean, ie x=μ
So no, it's not always 0.
