Answer: D. cluster

Step-by-step explanation:

A cluster sampling is a random sampling method in which a researcher splits the entire population into separate groups known as clusters.Then, he draw a random sample of clusters from the population.

After this he performs his analysis on data from the sampled clusters.

Given: A student was given an assignment to determine the percentage of students that brought a bag lunch to school. The student chose 5 random classrooms and surveyed every student in those classrooms.

Here classes is denoted as clusters and the student as researcher.

Hence, the cluster sampling is used by the student.
