What type of statistical study was used in this situation?
The Ministry of Education wants to study how students from different backgrounds perform on a national math exam. To ensure fairness, they decide to select a sample of 10,000 students from the 500,000 students taking the exam. Since student performance may vary based on different factors, the Ministry categorizes students into groups based on Grade level: 10th, 11th, and 12th graders. The Ministry analyzes the full student population and finds the following distribution:

  • Grade level: 10th (30%), 11th (35%), 12th (35%).

  • To ensure a balanced sample, they allocate their 10,000 students proportionally based on these percentages.
