Solution

To calculate the sample proportion, you divide the number of people who watch at least one movie a week by the total number of people in the sample.

Here's how you do it:

  1. Identify the number of people who watch at least one movie a week. From the problem, we know this number is 300.

  2. Identify the total number of people in the sample. From the problem, we know this number is 680.

  3. Divide the number of people who watch at least one movie a week by the total number of people in the sample. So, 300 divided by 680 equals 0.4411764705882353.

  4. Round this number to two decimal places. So, 0.4411764705882353 rounded to two decimal places is 0.44.

So, the sample proportion of people who watch at least one movie a week is 0.44.
