A teacher designed an experiment to see whether students would do
better on a quiz when it was copied onto yellow paper rather than
the usual white paper. She gave the same test to her first and fifth
period classes, randomly selecting the class that would get the test
copied onto yellow paper. The other class got the test copied onto
white paper. After grading the test, she found that 25 of the 40
students who took the test on yellow paper passed the test as did 30
of the 38 students who took the test on white paper.
