In a survey question for a sample of 250 individuals, 120 persons gave response 'yes', 80 persons gave response 'no' and 50 gave 'no response'. The point estimate of the proportion in the population who responded 'yes' is:

0.48

The correct answer is Option (3) → 0.48

Total sample size $n=250$

Number of 'yes' responses $=120$

Point estimate of proportion who responded 'yes':

$\hat{p}=\frac{120}{250}=\frac{12}{25}=0.48$
