STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Sample Proportion = Number of Successes/Sample Size
PSample = NSuccess/N
This formula uses 3 Variables
Variables Used
Sample Proportion - Sample Proportion is the ratio of the number of successes in a sample to the total size of the sample.
Number of Successes - Number of Successes is the count of favorable outcomes or events in a given set of trials or observations. It represents the instances in which the desired outcome occurs.
Sample Size - Sample Size is the total number of individuals or items included in a specific sample.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Number of Successes: 20 --> No Conversion Required

What is a Statistical Proportion and it's importance?

In Statistics, some particular numerical ratios which connects some important variables or parameters associated with the given data or distribution are called statistical proportions. Comparison of multiple data is the main advantage of these proportions. In statistical data analysis various proportions has a wide applications. For example, at the time of comparing two different data, comparing the performance of a company with last year performance, comparing the quality of one set of products to the next set of products, etc if we compare a fixed proportion of each group of data, we can take many useful conclusions.
