    Probability Query
    I have a population of 10,000 and I'm trying to understand the viability of a sample that a supplier is trying to sell me.

    The sample consists of 100 people.

    We contact 33% of the 10,000 population and I'm trying to understand what is the probability of contacting 10, 25, 75 and all 100 people in the sample.

    I think it's a Poisson problem but can't get my head round it.

    Please can any expert help

    Thank you
