The host assigns each passenger a different number. Using a random number table, he draws 
90 of those numbers at random. Then, he selects the passengers assigned to the drawn numbers. Every set of 
90 passengers is equally likely to be drawn using the random number table.
 
The host forms groups of 30 passengers based on the passengers' ages. Then, he randomly chooses 3
 groups and selects all of the passengers in these groups.
