The simple random sampling describes a simple sampling technique where a portion of the population can be selected while giving every member of the population an equal chance of being selected. Hence, the true statements from the option are :

  • sample of size n from the population has an equal chance of being selected.
  • Every member of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample

 

The simplest method of selection is used to create a representative sample

 

The simple random sampling techniques is easy, starignforward and effective, it is arguably the simplest method of selecting a truly representative sample.

 

Every single member of the population is given an equal chance of being selected in this sampling procedure, which also means that a sample of size also has an equal chance of being selected.

 

Therefore, only statements 

  • sample of size n from the population has an equal chance of being selected
  • Every member of the population has an equal chance of being included in the sample
  • The simplest method of selection is used to create a representative sample

 are true of simple random sampling technique.
