Answer:
B. 203.403
Step-by-step explanation:
2 times 100 = 200
3 times 1 = 3
4 times 1/10 = 0.4
3 times 1/1000 = 0.003
200 + 3 = 203
203 + 0.4 = 203.4
203.4 + 0.003 = 203.403

Answer: Sample B as it has the smaller sample (choice #4)</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
Recall that the margin of error (MOE) is defined as
MOE = z*s/sqrt(n)
The sample size n is located in the denominator, meaning that as n gets bigger, the MOE gets smaller. The same happens in reverse: as n gets smaller, the MOE gets bigger.
Put another way, a small sample size means we have more error because small samples mean they are less representative of the population at large. The bigger a sample is, the better estimate we will have of the parameter.
We are told that "sample A had a larger sample size" indicating that sample A has a more narrow confidence interval.
Therefore, sample B would have a wider confidence interval.
This is true regardless of what the confidence level is set at.
