Question:

A simple random sample of 100 items from a population with $σ=8$ has a standard error of mean :

Options:

0.08

12.5

0.8

6.25

Correct Answer:

0.8

Explanation:

Given population standard deviation $\sigma=8$ and sample size $n=100$.

Standard error of mean:

$SE=\frac{\sigma}{\sqrt{n}}$

$SE=\frac{8}{\sqrt{100}}$

$SE=\frac{8}{10}=0.8$

final answer: $0.8$
