Answer:
The number of teenagers in the stratified sample of equal proportion is 30 teenagers
Step-by-step explanation:
Whereby tickets are sold to only adults male and female and teenagers, boys and girls, we have the following groups
Group 1: Female adult
Group 2: Male adult
Group 3: Teenage boys
Group 4: Teenage girls
In stratified sampling, the types of people that visit the zoo (which is the target population) are identified and the appropriate proportion of each of the identified types is determined such that the sample is representative of the population
Where equal number of each group are observed to have visited the zoo, then, the appropriate sample size of the teenager is found as follows;
Number of groups identified = 4
Sample size = 30
Appropriate proportion of each group = 1/4
Number of teenage boys in the sample = 1/4×30 = 15
Number of teenage girls in the sample = 1/4×30 = 15
Total number of teenagers in the sample = 15 + 15 = 30 teenagers.
