Question

As an analyst, we would like to perform a work sampling study on an assembly line. The jobs can be
differentiated on the basis of the product size: A, B, and C. We perform a study over a five-week period
that equals to 200 working hours. There are 12 workers to be examined. In total, we perform 1140
observations. Yet, the worker absences lead to 15 worker-day deduction from the total working hours
where workers work 8 hour each day. The study results are tabulated below.
