Solution
The correct option is B Random sampling
When each element of a population has equal chance for being selected for analysis, then the sampling is called random sampling.
While in case of stratified sampling, population is divided into sub-population and random elements are chosen from each of them.
Since in the given example, the principal randomly selects 15 students from the entire school, therefore this sampling represents random sampling.
So, option (b) is correct.
