Answer:

The estimate for the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 10 Most Wanted list is 0.37.

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimate for the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 10 Most Wanted list is the number of people caught divided by the sample size.

In this question:

149 captured in a sample of 403.

149/403 = 0.37

The estimate for the proportion of people who were caught after being on the 10 Most Wanted list is 0.37.
