The probability of the treatment group’s mean being greater than the control group’s mean by 8 points or more is 0.036.
How to calculate the probability?
The probability of the treatment group’s mean being greater than the control group’s mean by 8 points or more will be:
= (26 + 8 + 2)/1000
= 36/1000
= 0.036
The significance level is set at 5%, and the probability of the result is statistically significant because the probability of the difference is less than 5% significance level.
