2.3) When South Africa hosted the Soccer World Cup in 2010, a group of 200 fans
were interviewed about Algeria, Bafana-Bafana and Cameroon. They were
asked whether these teams would progress to the second round of the
tournament. An analysis of the data indicated the following:
28 indicated that Algeria and Bafana-Bafana will progress. 42 indicated that only Bafana-Bafana will progress, but not Algeria or Cameroon. 64 indicated that only Cameroon will progress, but not Algeria or Bafana-Bafana. 14 indicated that only Algeria and Cameroon will progress. 98 indicated that Algeria or Bafana will progress, but not Cameroon. 122 indicated that Bafana-Bafana or Cameroon will progress, but not Algeria. 5 indicated that not one of the teams will progress. 3 indicated that all three teams will progress.
