Margin Of Error Calculator
Find a mean margin of error as critical value × population standard deviation / sqrt(n).
Open toolFind the standard-error correction sqrt((N − n)/(N − 1)). Provide Population size, Sample size without replacement to compute results directly in your browser. Simple random sampling without replacement; 1 ≤ n ≤ N and N > 1. This is a multiplier, not a sample-size recommendation. Inputs and results use floating-point numbers; output shows up to 12 significant digits. Rounding can occur.
Enter the inputs, then select Calculate.
