    Surveying the Faculty. The faculty of a college consists
    of 820 members. A new president has just been appointed.
    The president wants to get an idea of what the
    faculty considers the most important issues currently facing
    the school. She does not have time to interview all the
    faculty members and so decides to stratify the faculty by
    rank and use stratified random sampling with proportional
    allocation to obtain a sample of 40 faculty members. There
    are 205 full professors, 328 associate professors, 246 assistant
    professors, and 41 instructors.
    a. How many faculty members of each rank should be selected
    for interviewing?
    b. Use Table I in AppendixAto obtain the required sample.
    Explain your procedure in detail.

    For the number of professors in each rank I would use a percentage for each rank against the total number of professors.
