a very important omission, I thought from the image they were already selected.  Well the quick way would be to do a query on that field which you can do via a Using Select By Attributes—Help | ArcGIS for Desktop which is available as a menu option, accessable within the table, or as a tool in arctoolbox.... then, a quick field calculate with my previous suggestion of ... 15 ... since they will all be selected, you will be done.  If you are afraid of a mistake, just get the table into edit mode so you can undo your calculation.  Total time, < 30 seconds

Dan_Patterson   There are total more than 15000 row, so by manually typing its very taking process to check each row . Therefore i want to apply condition statement through filed calculator
