Mr. Smith is planting a class garden for his third grade class. He surveys the class and determines that 65% prefer planting corn over tomatoes. The school's principal decides that the project is such a great idea that all third grade students in the school will participate. Is it correct to infer from Mr. Smith's survey that 65% of the school's third grade population prefer planting corn over tomatoes? Why or why not?

No, because he only surveyed his class which 65% of them prefer planting corn over tomatoes. In which it does not mean that the school's third grade population that prefers planting corn over tomatoes is 65%
