The dataset HomesForSale has data on houses available for sale in three Mid- Atlantic states (NY, NJ, and PA) and California (CA). We are interested in the proportion of Mid- Atlantic houses that are larger than the mean US household size, which is approximately 2700 square feet. In the sample of 90 Mid-Atlantic homes for sale in HomesForSale, we see that 16 are larger then 2700 sqft.

(a) What is the sample proportion? Estimate the standard error of the sample proportion.
