Suppose the age distribution of the Canadian population and the age distribution of a random sample of 559 residents in the Indian community of Red Lake are shown below.

Age (years) Percentage of Canadian Population Observed Number in Red Lake Village
Under 5 7.9% 52
5 to 14 12.6% 68
15 to 64 67.0% 390
65 and older 12.5% 49
