More than one teacher has given the following advice: choose answer C
when blindly guessing among four answers in a multiple choice test, ?
since C is more often the correct answer than either A, B, or D.
Suppose that we take a random sample of $40 correct answers from
multiple-choice tests for introductory college courses and obtain the
information summarized by the first row of numbers in the table below.
These numbers are the observed frequencies for the categories
A, B, C, and D for our sample of 540 correct answers. The second row of
numbers contains the frequencies expected for a sample of 540 correct
answers if a correct answer is equally likely to be A, B, C, or D. The
bottom row of numbers contains the following value for each of the
correct answer categories A, B, C, and D.
