What is Sampling?
• • Sampling is the process of selecting a subset
from a population.
• • Used in statistics, research, surveys, and
data analysis.
• • Helps estimate population characteristics
efficiently.
Types of Sampling (Probability)
• • Simple Random Sampling
• • Systematic Sampling
• • Stratified Sampling
• • Cluster Sampling
Types of Sampling
(Non‑Probability)
• • Convenience Sampling
• • Judgmental/Purposive Sampling
• • Quota Sampling
• • Snowball Sampling
Example Problem: Simple Random
Sampling
• Problem:
• A population has 500 people. You select 50
randomly.
• Find sampling fraction.
• Solution:
• Sampling Fraction = sample size / population
size = 50 / 500 = 0.10 (10%).
Example Problem: Systematic
Sampling
• Problem:
• Population = 1000, Sample needed = 100.
• Find sampling interval (k).
• Solution:
• k = N / n = 1000 / 100 = 10.
• Select every 10th element.
Example Problem: Stratified
Sampling
• Problem:
• Population: 600 students.
• Strata: Science=300, Arts=200,
Commerce=100.
• Sample size = 60. Find sample from each
stratum (proportionate).
• Solution:
• Science: 300/600 × 60 = 30
