Sample size
n= N
1+Ne²

n= 556
1+ (556)(0.05)²

n= 556
1+ (556)(0.0025)

n= 556
1+ 1.39

n= 556
2.39
n = 232.63 or 233

School A
= 52/556 *233
= 0.0940 * 233
= 21.91 or 22
School B
= 57/556 *233
= 0.1025 * 233
= 23.88 or 24
School C
= 55/556 *233
= 0.0989 * 233
= 23.05 or 23
School D
= 23/556 *233
= 0.0414 * 233
= 9.64 or 10
School E
= 63/556 *233
 = 0.1133 * 233
= 26.40 or 26
School F
= 70/556 *233
= 0.1259 * 233
= 29.33 or 29
School G
= 69/556 *233
= 0.1241 * 233
= 28.91 or 29
School H
= 73/556 *233
= 0.1313 * 233
= 30.59 or 31
School I
= 46/556 *233
= 0.0827 * 233
= 19.28 or 19
School J
= 48/556 *233
= 0.0863 * 233
= 20.11 or 20
