Answer 1

Answer

(A) given proportion is p = 0.44 and sample size is n = 1381

Number of people who said “very harmful” = p*n

setting the n and p values, we get

= 0.44*1381

= 607.64

= 608(rounded to nearest)

(B) total number of people n = 1381

number of people who said not at all harmful (x)= 1364

required percentage = (x/n)*100

setting the values, we get

=(1363/1381)*100

= 98.8%
