A middle school contains sixth, seventh, and eighth graders. Each grade level contains approximately the same number of students. The principal wants to find the answer to a survey question affecting each student in the school. He asks a sample group "What time do you get up in the morning?"

Step-by-step explanation:

A good sample must be random and representative of all the population. In this case, the population is all the kids that go to middle school.
