Answer: Second option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of sixth graders students = 160

Number of seventh graders students = 180

Number of eighth graders students = 140

If 9 seventh graders were part of a random sample of the population chosen to participate in a survey.

Let Number of sixth graders should be chosen be 'x'.

Since there will be direct proportion .

\frac{180}{9}=\frac{160}{x}\\\\20=\frac{160}{x}\\\\x=\frac{160}{20}\\\\x=8

Hence, Second option is correct.
