A group of 100 people, who lived at varying distances (in kilometers) from an island nuclear power station, were asked if they thought a full evacuation the area was required, when it went critical. The researches wanted to know if the opinion to evacuate or not depended on how far from the reactor pec lived.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that there are 100 people.

Therefore, the table becomes, 

  0-3 km distance 3-6 km distance 6+ km distance Total
Evacuation needed X X X 54
Evacuation not needed X X X 100-54=46
Totals 33 32 100-33-32=35 100
steps
