Answer

In this sample, we see that Keebler’s Chips have slightly more chips per cookies as the mean of Keebler’s Chips is 25.381, while that of the store brand is 24.476. However, the difference is minor and can be due to the natural variation in the sample. Thus we can not conclude with certainty that one brand has more chips in general.

Work Step by Step

Calculate the means of both brands and then compare.
