Answer 1

Please don't hesitate to give a "thumbs up" for the answer in case you're satisfied with the answer

The small hospital has a Higher percentage of minor surgeries (89.1% - this is 450/450+55) than the larger hospital (33.3%- 400/800+400).

Minor surgeies have a small discharge delay rate, so the small hospital looks "better" overall.

explanation: Since minor surgery have low delay discharge rates, and much of the total surgeries
of small are minor, therefore, the overall delay rates for small hospital look much lower, and hence "better"
