Question:

A jury is supposed to represent the population. We wish to perform a simulation to determine an empirical probability that a jury of 12 people has 5 or fewer women. Assume that about 50% of the population is female, so the probability that a person who is chosen for the jury is a woman is 50%. Using a random number table, we decide that each digit will represent a juror. The digits 0 through 5, we decide, will represent a female chosen, and 6 through 9 will represent a male. Why this is a bad choice for this simulation?
