Find a sample size for a central normal interval

For an independent random sample X1,…,XnX_1,\ldots,X_n from X∼N(μ,1)X\sim N(\mu,1):

(i) State the distribution of Xˉ\bar X.

(ii) Find the sample size required to ensure that the probability that Xˉ\bar X is within 0.1 of μ\mu is greater than 0.95.
