Question

Kimberly had more time to conduct the surveys and decided to survey a random sample of 30 students from the school. In Kimberly's sample, 24 students said they would vote for Tammy. What is Kimberly's best estimate of the number of students in the school who would vote for Tammy?

Answer 1

80% of the students would vote for Tammy

Explanation:

Since a Kimberly took a sample of 30 students from the school and it was found that 24 students said they would vote for Tammy. To determine Kimberly's best estimate of the number of students in the school who would vote for Tammy, we divide the number of students that said they would vote for tammy by the total number of student sample.

number of students who would vote for Tammy = students who said would vote for sammy / number of sample = 24 / 30 = 4/5 = 80%
