Question

In computing the standard error of the mean,the finite population correction factor is used when
A)N/n > 0.05
B)N/n $\le$0.05
C)n/N > 0.05
D)n/N $\le$30

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The finite population correction factor is used when the sample size (n) is not much smaller than the population size (N) which is usually defined as n/N > 0.05. Therefore, option C is the correct choice.
