Thread: i have got a problem with this question

i have attached this question. i have having problems doing it?

please can someone give me a idea on how to do it.

thanks

You have 400 people in the village, and you want a sample of 50 people representing the same distribution as the village. 50 people out of 400 is 1/8. Just take 1/8 of the people out of each age group. Those people represent your sample.

thanks m8. i will have a go at it.
