Answer: 1537

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to calculate the sample size when any prior estimation is not available :-

[tex]n=0.25(\dfrac{z_{\alpha/2}}{E})^2[/tex]

Given : Significance level : [tex]\alpha: 1-0.95=0.05[/tex]

Critical value : [tex]z_{\alpha/2}=1.96[/tex]

Margin of error : [tex]E=0.025[/tex]

Then the sample size will be :-

[tex]n=0.25(\dfrac{1.96}{0.025})^2\\\\\Rightarrow\ n=1536.64\approx1537[/tex]
