Cullen (1994) took a sample of the 580 children served by an Auckland family practice to estimate the proportion of interest.
a What sample size in an SRS (without replacement) would be necessary to estimate the proportion with 95% confidence and margin of error 0.10?
b Cullen actually took an SRS with replacement of size 120, of whom 27 were not overdue for vaccination. Give a 95% CI for the proportion of children not overdue for vaccination.
