Question 816677: A random sample of 1,750 adults showed that 850 of them have surf the internet at least once in a week. What is the probability that a randomly selected adult has surf the internet? Answer by Theo(13342) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! the percentage of people in the random sample that have surfed the internet is equal to 850 / 1750 which is equal to .4857 which is equal to 48.57%.
if the random sample is indicative of the whole population, then you can assume that approximately 48.57% of the population surfs the internet at least once in a week.
