A scientist conducted an experiment to determine whether an organic cleaner is as effective as a non-organic cleaner in killing germs that cause colds and the flu. To conduct the experiment, the scientist randomly selected 50 doorknobs in a hospital. He cleaned 25 of the door knobs with the organic cleaner, and he cleaned the remaining 25 door knobs with the non-organic cleaner. After cleaning and testing all of the doorknobs, the scientist reported that the organic cleaner killed 90% of germs that cause colds and the flu on the doorknobs, while the non-organic cleaner killed 95% of germs that cause colds and the flu on the doorknobs. What can be concluded from the scientist's report?

What we can conclude from the scientist's report is that an organic cleaner is not as effective as a non-organic cleaner in killing germs that cause colds and the flu. 

This is because a non-organic cleaner killed 95% of the germs while an organic cleaner killed only  90% of the germs.

Answer:

The sample taken is random and grouped. 50% doorknobs were cleaned with organic cleaner and 50% were cleaned with non organic cleaner.

It was reported that organic cleaner killed 90% of germs while the non-organic cleaner killed 95% of germs.

Therefore, the following conclusions can be made.

The organic cleaner is 90% effective  and the non-organic cleaner is 95% effective.

The non-organic cleaner is more effective in killing germs as compared to organic cleaner in killing germs that cause colds and the flu.
