    0.1105

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that question about reporting a cheating is asked to 172 students.

    So the sample size would be n=172.

    Out of 172 undergraduate students only 19 students answered "yes". It means that only 19 out of 172 students are willing to report cheating and so x=19.

    According to definition of proportion

    proportion=number of favorable outcome/total number of outcome

    p=x/n

    we are given that x=19 and n=172 so,

    p=19/172=0.1105.

    Hence according to given data 11.05% of students are wiling to report cheating by other students.
