Answer:

stratified sampling

Step-by-step explanation:

Stratified random sampling is a method of sampling in which a population is divided into smaller groups based on characteristics like male and female or education level to complete the sampling process. These smaller groups are known as strata. Under stratified sampling, the sample size required to achieve a given precision can be reduced.
