The Wall Street Journal provides the net asset value, the year-to-date percent return, and the three-year percent return for 748 mutual funds.† Assume that a simple random sample of 12 of the 748 mutual funds will be selected for a follow-up study on the size and performance of mutual funds. Use the first column of the table of random numbers, beginning with 63271, to select the simple random sample of 12 mutual funds. Begin with mutual fund 271 and use the last three digits in each row of column 1 for your selection process. What are the numbers of the 12 mutual funds in the simple random sample? (Enter your answers as a comma-separated list.)

RANDOM NUMBERS are between 001 to 748. If it is above 748 then omit that number and proceed until you get 12 distinct numbers)

Answer: (271, 547,276,363,393,186,726,520,628,649,291,502)
