Thread: Statistics-How to find the point estimate of the true proportion?

Problem says: A poll conducted found that 340/780 of voters considered themselves middle class. What is the point estimate for th true proportion of voters wh consider to be middle class?


So that means .4359 successes and .5641 failures.....

Thanks.
