    d) The sample size is n = 400 voters

    The number of people that answered they'd vote for Brown are 151, so the sample proportion of voters that would vote for bron is:

    p = 151/400 = 0.3775 ≅ 0.38

    e) To know how many people is expected to vote for Brown based on the results of the telephone poll you can do the following calculation:

    10400*0.38 = 3952
