Answer to Question #301738 in Statistics and Probability for jitendra

Question

A report says that 80% of India’s females aged 15-59 are not currently 

engaged in the workforce. A national agency has an opinion that this 

percentage may be even more. To validate its opinion, the agency did 

a survey of randomly chosen 1200 females of the age group 15-59 from 

the different parts of the country and found 228 females working. Do 

the figures of the survey help the agency in validation of its opinion?
