Question

The employees that drive to work were the target of her survey.
The employees that drive to work adequately represented the sample.
All employees were adequately represented by the sample that drives to work.
All employees were too difficult to survey because the group was too large.

Answer 1

The best description of why she chose to only ask the employees that drive to work rather than all of her employees is:

**The employees that drive to work were the target of her survey.**

This option correctly identifies that the survey question is specifically designed to gather information relevant to those who incur expenses for gasoline in order to commute to work, making them the appropriate group to survey.
