3.1.12. Goodness of Fit.
In a random sample drawn from a population there are
different classes of observations having different frequencies.
The test by which we decide whether the observations are in
good agreement with a hypothetical distribution of the
population is known as Test of Goodness of Fit.
Illustration.
Let a random sample of 500 students be drawn from the
population of all college students of West Bengal. Let it be
observed that there are four classes of students among these,
which are Hindu, Muslims, Christans and Buddhist. The
frequency of these classes i.e. the number of students of these
classes are noted as 200, 150, 100 and 50 respectively in the
sample. We consider the hypothesis that “The ratio of students
of these classes in West Bengal colleges is 3 : 2: 2:1”. If we want
to test whether the frequencies of the classes occured in our
sample agree good with this hypothesis then this is a ‘test of
Goodness of Fit’.
Observed Frequency and Expected Frequency
The frequency of a class in a sam) le is called observed
frequency of that class in the sample. It is denoted by f.. In
the previous Illustration the observed frequency of the class
‘Muslim’, “ f, of Muslim” =150- +3-38 ENGINEERING MATHEMATIOS.1y

occurence of different classes in the population.
