I have a target audience of people, who ask questions online. My goal is to find out, what types of questions are most frequently asked.
I took a sample of 100 probably random questions and assigned one or more categories to each of them.
Then, I have counted, how often a question of a certain category was asked.
Imagine, question of category A has been asked B times in a sample of 100 questions. How can I find out, whether
- this type of question is asked often in the total population (i. e. not those 100 random questions, but all questions of my target audience) or
- the result is a random one (i. e. even though this category occured B times in my sample, in the total population of questions it occurs much less frequent than B percent)
?
What kind of test can I use for that?
