Question

Use the row of numbers shown below to generate 12 random numbers between 01 and 99. 03087, 11990, 31970, 68370, 63674, 11151, 27521, 83595

Starting at the beginning of the row, what are the first 12 numbers between 01 and 99 in the sample?

Answer 1

We select a two digit number from the very first digit from the random numbers given. If a two-digit appears as 00, we reject the number and move to next two digits.

The given random digits are:
03087 11990 31970 68370 63674 11151 27521 83595

We construct the following table for the choice of random digits and hence the random numbers:

Digits Chosen	Sample Chosen	Remark
03	3	Accept
08	8	Accept
71	71	Accept
19	19	Accept
90	90	Accept
31	31	Accept
97	97	Accept
06	6	Accept
36	36	Accept
74	74	Accept
11	11	Accept
15	15	Accept

Hence, the chosen random numbers are:
3, 8, 71, 19, 90, 31, 97, 6, 36, 74, 11, 15.
