Question 13

Consider an operational process in a factory where widgets are produced. As the process is not perfect, errors sometimes happen, and the errors are either technical or human. Over the last 100 days, errors were observed and recorded. On any given day, there occurred zero to three (0 to 3) human errors and zero to three (0 to 3) technical errors. The frequency distribution of errors is given in the following contingency table.
