Or twelve times
less likely to. I can make up math, too!
Statistically, a sample size of 12 is sqrt(12) better than a sample size of 1. Or, if you wish to be even more pedantic, sqrt(n-1) for some of these sorts of samples. What we are talking about here is Error and the standard deviation of a sample mean.
The Standard Error for 12 is equal to ~0.2887 the size of a sample of 1.
I'd be voting for the smaller error, myself. Ringo is far closer to the point.
