Question

Sam asks five of his friends in his accelerated ELA class.

Answer 1

Answer:

1) Sam only interviewed five people out of his entire ELA class, so he doesn't have a very wide demographic to study

2) All of these people were Sam's friends, so they might all have similar interests or only enjoy certain things, and that doesn't allow for a wide range of data collection

Answer 2

Sample is too small (5 isn’t representative of his whole ELA class)

Sample isn’t representative as he only asks his friends (bias may be shown as Sam may know that his friends r avid or lazy readers). Not proportionate to the whole ELA class
