A teacher wants to know whether the students in the entire school prefer watching television or playing outdoor games after school. The teacher draws a random sample from the following groups:

All school teachers
All students on the football team
All boys in each grade
All students in each grade

Which of the following groups best represents the population from which the teacher should take a random sample to get the best results for her survey?

A. All school teachers
B.. All students on the football team
C..All boys in each grade
D. All students in each grade

D. All students in each grade. It can't be A since the survey is for the students, it defeats the purpose. It can't be B and C since those are too biased. Basing the student population on one factor like gender and sports is not logical in the context of this survey.

What is sampling?

It is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population, which is a group containing elements of a population. A sample has to be representative of the population, that is, it has to involve all segments of the population.

In this problem, the sample should include students, be they boys or girls, football players or not, and of every grade. Hence option D is correct.
