Introduction
Our maths teacher Mr Lavery has given us a sheet containing 300 students test results for our school St. Marks. There is four subjects involved they are: Maths, English, Science, and French. There is also only 3 year groups involved they are years 8, 9, and 10.
I have studied the piece of paper that Mr Lavery gave me and 1 have noticed that in year 8 there is 5 classes listed they are: A, B, C, D, and E.
Where as in years 9 and 10 there is only four classes which are A, B, C, and D.

In year 8 altogether there is 120 people.
In year 9 altogether there is 80 people.
In year 10 altogether there is 100 people.
I have also noticed on the sheet of paper given to me that there is no names mentioned, but each person is allocated with a number. Numbered from 1 - 300.
I am going to take a sample of 50 students and compare their marks for the marks of the maths. I will use the stratified sampling method to help me choose how many boys and how many girls I am going to need from each year group. I already know that I am going to take a sample of 25 boys and 25 girls.
My Hypostasis
**I think that Girls are better at maths than Boys.**
I am now going to move on and used the stratified sampling method to help me choose how many boys and girls I need from each year group!
I am going to take a sample of 25 for both boys and girls.
