5 Divide the student population into 2 mutually exclusive subgroups for
example males and females.
Interview any 100 males and 100 females to get a sample size of 200.
List the students in order. By method of counting off, we divide the 1800
students into 200 intervals, each interval with 9 students.
Within the 1
st
interval, choose a random start from the 1
st
to 9
th
student
(inclusive), then take the 9

student thereafter.

(a) The average number of prank call received is constant throughout the
workday and the calls occurs randomly or
(b) The average number of prank call received over non-lapping time
intervals.
