Answer: There are 24 people who can sample from one jar.

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Amount of jam a jar contains = 12 ounces

Sample size of an ounce is given by


(1)/(2)\text{ of ounce}\\

So, Number of people can sample from one jar is given by


(12)/((1)/(2))\\=12* 2\\=24

So, there are 24 people who can sample from one jar.
