Question

A consultant wants to ask workers at a factory about the workers' job satisfaction. Which of the following best describes a convenience sample of workers?

All of the workers on the second floor of the factory building are easily accessible. So, the consultant selects the first 60 workers from the second floor to arrive at work on a particular day.

The consultant takes a list of the workers and selects every 6th worker until 60 workers are selected.

The consultant forms 5 groups of workers based on the workers' shifts. Then, he selects 12 workers at random from each group.
