Question

Generally, the ________ the sample, the more accurately it describes the population.

A. closer

B. larger

C. smaller

D. better

Answer 1

B. larger is the correct answer.

Think about it like that game, "who am I?". The more you describe to the person, the more accurate a picture they get of what you're trying to describe. So if you have a larger sample (more details), it describes the population more accurately.
