"What do you think is the ideal number of children for a family to have?" A Gallup Poll asked this question of 1016 randomly chosen adults. Almost half (49%) thought two children was ideal.† We are supposing that the proportion of all adults who think that two children is ideal is p = 0.49. What is the probability that a sample proportion p̂ falls between 0.46 and 0.52 (that is, within ±3 percentage points of the true p) if the...
