Activity 3

I. Using stratified sampling technique, compute the sample size using 5% margin
of error for each school. 15 pts.

School Population Percentage Sample size, n

A 800

B 500

C 1000

D 1250

Steps:
1. Read first the slides on Collection and Presentation of Data (ppt.).
2. On slides # 35 to 37 uploaded in Class Materials, you can find same example on
this activity. Use it as your guide.
3. Get first the total N or population.
4. Compute the sample size or n using Slovin formula or Raosoft sample size
calculator available in search engines.
5. Compute the percentage for each school in the percentage column.
6. To get the sample size for each school, multiply the percentage in decimal form
by the result of the sample size ,n. Make sure that the total of the sample size is
equal to the computed sample size. That’s how you compute your sample size.
