Given information

The possible sampling method to determine the mean number of students per statistics class can be Stratified Sampling and Cluster Sampling. 
 
  1. Stratified Sampling is the sampling in which the entire population divide into homogeneous groups called "strata" and these strata are the best representative of the entire population and from each stratum(singular form of strata), a random sample is selected.
  2. Cluster Sampling is the sampling in which the population divides into multiple groups (clusters) and then selects random groups with a simple random or systematic random sampling technique for the data analysis.

Step-by-step explanation

Step 1.

Stratified Sampling: Select the list of colleges and universities for 5 years in the state and from that list form a different stratum of a college and university from each stratum randomly select students who enrolled in the statistics class and find the mean number of students per statistics class in your state.
