["One hundred small businesses in Newcastle are placed in alphabetical order and then numbered 1-100. The random number generator is then used to select twenty of these businesses.","Under this form of sampling, if there are five hundred elements in the population, each element has a one-in-five hundred chance of being selected. ","One advantage of this form of sampling is that every element in the population has an equal chance of being selected.","We are interested in the employment status of 25-40 year olds in South Tyneside. The names of all such people are obtained from the electoral roll and put into a hat; one hundred of these are then selected without replacement.","One of six branches of a large retail outlet is to be selected for an audit. Each outlet is assigned a number from one to six, and then a fair, six-sided die is rolled to select the branch which will be audited."]
