About Sample Size Calculator

Calculate the minimum sample size needed for statistical significance or determine the margin of error for your survey results.

Key Concepts

  • Sample Size: Observations needed
  • Margin of Error: Accuracy range
  • Confidence Level: Result reliability

Z-Scores

  • • 90% confidence: Z = 1.645
  • • 95% confidence: Z = 1.96
  • • 99% confidence: Z = 2.576

Tips

  • • Use 50% proportion when uncertain
  • • Larger sample = smaller error
