Answer:

OptionA

Explanation:

95% confidence interval is obtained using the following formula

COnfidence interval lower bound = mean - critical value * sigma/sq rt n

and upper bound = mean + critical value*sigma/sq rt n

Thus margin of error = critical value*sigma/rt n

varies indirectly as n provided others are remaining the same.

Hence lower sample indicates higher margin of error

Out of 4 options given we find that I option has maximum margin of error as 21%

Hence option A is most likely coming from a small sample
