Question

A health inspector wants to check compliance with a new city ordinance on meat storage. Since he can only inspect 10 of the 33 stores, he chooses to do a stratified random sample that consists of all 3 of the large chain stores, 4 of the 10 smaller chain stores, and 3 of the 20 locally-owned stores.

From his inspection he finds that 2 of the 3 large chain stores are compliant, 1 of the 4 smaller chain stores is compliant, and 1 of the 3 locally-owned chain stores is compliant.
