Question

An airline company advertises that 100% of their flights are on time after checking 5 randomly selected flights. What is the problem with this study?
1)missing data
2)reported results
3)small sample
4)loaded question

Answer 1

The issue with the study in question is primarily related to **3) small sample**. Checking only 5 randomly selected flights is not a sufficient sample size to make a broad claim about 100% of flights being on time. A larger and more representative sample would be necessary to draw reliable conclusions about the overall performance of the airline's flight timeliness.
