A survey of the whole United States shows that 75% of 6th grade students like sports that involve running, that 60% of boys like
baseball, that 30% of boys like basketball, and that 10% of girls like field hockey. Mountain School is about to make changes to its sports program. Which part of the above population sample makes sense to use at Mountain School, especially since they’re on a limited budget?
This sample makes the most sense because it is a majority of everyone, not just a majority of certain people. Also, Mountain School would get fewer complaints from other people if they went with a majority of 75%. Finally, running sports usually cost less then other sports.
