Frequently Asked Questions

How many trials n do I need to average 50 conversions at a 2.5% conversion rate?+

Click SOLVE FOR on n (Number of Trials), set μ = 50 and p = 0.025. The required traffic is n = 2,000 trials.

How do I find the standard deviation of binomial outcomes?+

Multiply the solved mean μ by (1 - p) and take the square root: σ = √(μ × (1 - p)).

What are the requirements for a Binomial experiment?+

A fixed number of trials n, binary outcomes (success/failure), constant probability p on every trial, and mutual independence between trials.
