a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The fraction defective in each sample.

Introduction: Quality is a measure of excellence or a state of being free from deficiencies, defects and important variations. It is obtained by consistent and strict commitment to certain standards to attain uniformity of a product to satisfy consumers’ requirement.

b)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The estimation for fraction defective when true fraction defective for the process is unknown.
