Step 1  Given: The provided data is:  Year LevelPopulation Size per Grade LevelFirst Year515Second Year620Third Year490Fourth Year725Fifth Year925Irregular555Total3830  Step 2  The sample size is considered to be good if it is 10% of the population size. But if the size of the sample exceeds 1000, the sample size is considered to be 1000.   The 10% of the population size is being used as the sample size because there is no confidence level and margin of error provided in the question.  The size of the sample for first year is given as:  sample size (first year)=515×10100  =51.5  ≈52  Thus, the size of the sample for first year is 52.  The size of the sample for second year is given as:  sample size (second year)=620×10100  =62  Thus, the size of the sample for second year is 62.  Similarly, the sample size can be computed for other year levels.  Step 3  The table is represented as:  Year LevelPopulation Size per Grade LevelSample sizeFirst Year51552Second Year62062Third Year49049Fourth Year72573Fifth Year92592Irregular55555Total3830383
