You want to estimate the number of students who bring their lunch to school everyday. Which of the following is the best sample for this solution? 80 students selected at random during lunch? 50 female students selected at random? 45 first year student selected at random? Or all members of the math club?
80 students selected at random during lunch would be the best sample for estimating the number of students who bring their lunch to school everyday. This sample would be more representative of the entire school population as it includes students from different grade levels and gender, rather than being limited to a specific group such as female students, first year students, or members of a specific club.
