A state magazine once published a story saying that farmers lead other groups in the
consumption of alcohol. As evidence, it pointed to the fact that a rehabilitation center located in
the rural part of the state treated more farmers than any other occupational group for alcoholism.
Do you agree? Why, or why not? Justify your answer. (assume the sample is large enough and
random and representative)
Solution
We can say this if and only if number of farmer is comparable or less than other occupation
groups. Otherwise, This statement is WRONG.
