What is a sample?

A sample is a group of people, objects, or items taken from a larger population to measure the findings about a population.

Sample statistics are used to make generalizations about the whole population.  Samples should be representative of the population.

Data and Calculations:

Sample participants for the survey = 56

Participants who felt "having new experiences" was most important = 20

Participants who felt "good health" was most important = 16

Participants who said "a successful career" was most important = 14

The percentage of the New Yorkers who said "having new experiences" was the most important was 35.71% (20/56 x 100)

Thus, as a group, the sample size of 56, represents the whole.
