A gigantic warehouse stores approximately 50 million
empty aluminum beer and soda cans. Recently, a fire occurred
at the warehouse. The smoke from the fire contaminated many of the
cans with blackspot, rendering them unusable. A statistician
was hired by the insurance company to estimate p, the true
proportion of cans in the warehouse that were contaminated by the
fire. How many aluminum cans should be randomly sampled to estimate
p to within 0.02 with 90% confidence?
