Here's the updated analysis. Mathteacher, I counted you as O+ as Rh positive is more common than negative.
Type Sample (n) Sample (%) Gen Pop (%)
A+ 22 25.3 35.7
A- 9 10.3 6.3
B+ 9 10.3 8.5
B- 6 6.9 1.5
O+ 22 25.3 35.7
O- 12 13.8 6.6
AB+ 4 4.6 3.4
AB- 3 3.4 0.6
Type Sample (n) expected (n) Difference
A+ 22 31 -9
A- 9 5 4
B+ 9 7 2
B- 6 1 5
O+ 22 31 -9
O- 12 6 6
AB+ 4 3 1
AB- 3 1 2
So far our sample has 10% fewer A+ people than we would expect, and 10% more O+ people than expected, about half as many O- people than expected, and 3 times as many AB- people as expected compared to the general population.
