Given a lower bound of 1, upper bound of 5, and sample size of 1200, calculate the point estimate and margin of error

<-- Lower Bound
<-- Upper Bound
<-- n
  

Given a lower bound of 1, upper bound of 5, and sample size n of 1200, calculate the point estimate and margin of error

Calculate the point estimate:

Point Estimate  =  Upper Bound + Lower Bound
  2

Point Estimate  =  5 + 1
  2

Point Estimate  =  6
  2







Calculate the Margin of Error:

Margin of Error = Upper Bound - Point Estimate
Margin of Error = 5 - 3
Margin of Error = 2


What is the Answer?

Point Estimate = 3
