If we have a sample size of 500 and a population proportion of 0.995,we can approximate the sampling distribution of $\hat { p }$ with a normal distribution.

Given the population proportion (p) of 0.995 and sample size (n) of 500, the conditions for normal approximation (np ≥ 10 and n(1-p) ≥ 10) are not met, as n(1-p) = 500 * (1-0.995) = 2.5, which is less than 10.
