Answer 1

The answer is stratified random sample.  Stratified random sampling is a technique for sampling that includes the division of a populace into littler gatherings known as strata - which depend on individuals' shared qualities or attributes. To do this, you have to first separate the populace into groups of people that are comparative somehow. At that point pick a basic random sample from each and join to frame a full example.
