This is the information for the question. We were asked to select a student's info and find the sample size population. I've attached what I came up with but I feel as though my answer is incorrect because I keep coming up with 1. Should the sampling error be 0.03 instead of 3?

  1. https://www.pollingreport.com/food.htm "Overall, how healthy would you say your diet is: very healthy, somewhat healthy, not too healthy, or not at all healthy?", n=2,027 adults nationwide, Margin of error 3.
  2. The responses to the question where as follows:
    1. 26% Very Healthy
    2. 60% Somewhat Healthy
    3. 10% Not Too Healthy
    4. 2% Not at All Healthy
    5. 1% Unsure
  3. The confidence levels for each result is: (Percentage-3%,Percentage+3%)
    1. Very Healthy (23%-29%)
    2. Somewhat Healthy (57%-63%)
    3. Not Too Healthy (7%-13%)
    4. Not at All Healthy (-1%-5%)
    5. Unsure (-2%-4%)

Sample Size for Proportion
