A study was done to compare people's religion with how many days that they have said they have been calm in the past three days. What proportion of Protestants were calm for 2 out of the 3 days?
Solution:
Probability of the number of protestants that were calm for 2 out of 3 days are
P (Calm for 2 days | Protestants) = n (Protestants who were calm for 2 days)/ n(Protestants)
It is given that
Number of protestants surveyed n (Protestants) = 99
Number of protestants who were calm for 2 days n (Protestants who were calm for 2 days) = 6
So the required probability is
P (Calm for 2 days | Protestants) = n (Protestants who were calm for 2 days)/ n(Protestants)
Substituting the values
= 6/99
= 0.060606
= 0.061
Therefore, the proportion of Protestants who were calm for 2 out of the 3 days is 0.061.
