Use 1000 as a total and make a contingency table
\n" ); document.write( "======A===============B
\n" ); document.write( "Defect-52-------------------42----------94
\n" ); document.write( "ND-----598-----------------308--------906
\n" ); document.write( "Total---650---------------350---------1000
\n" ); document.write( "a. 65%, that is given.
\n" ); document.write( "b. 9.4% from the right part of the contingency table
\n" ); document.write( "c. 52/94 was made by A or 55.3%
