Four students did a survey to find the pizza topping sixth-grade students prefer. The table below shows the method each student used to conduct the survey:
Student Method
Troy Asked 100 students at random from his seventh-grade class what their favorite pizza topping is
Dacia Asked 100 eighth-grade students at random what their favorite pizza topping is
Julia Asked 100 sixth-grade students at random what their favorite pizza topping is
Tanner Asked 100 third-grade students at random what their favorite pizza topping is
Which student's survey is most likely not biased
Troy
Dacia
Julia
Tanner
1 answer
Julia's survey is most likely not biased as she asked sixth-grade students at random what their favorite pizza topping is, which is the same grade level as the target group. Asking students from the same grade level reduces the likelihood of bias.
