Central Limit Theorem

The Central Limit Theorem states that regardless of the shape of a population, the distributions of sample means are normal if sample sizes are large.

If samples of size n are drawn randomly from a population that has a mean of μ and a standard deviation of σ, the sample means are approximately normally distributed for sufficiently large sample sizes (n ≥ 30) regardless of the shape of the population distribution. If the population is normally distributed, the sample means are normally distributed for any size sample.
