Recent studies have shown that about 20% of American adults fit the medical definition of being obese. To estimate the percentage of obese patients in its practice, a large medical clinic takes a random sample of 100 patients and finds that 23 are obese. Find the probability that if the clinic takes another random sample of 100 patients, the sample proportion of obese patients will be higher than 0.23. A) 0.2159 B) 0.2687 C) 0.2266 D) 0.2763 E) 0.2301
