Using sampling concepts, it is found that the best way to perform a randomized experiment with the goal of determining if this new hamburger will sell better than the hamburger that is currently sold is as follows:

What is sampling?

It is is a common statistics practice, when we want to study something from a population, we find a sample of this population.

For example:

I want to estimate the proportion of New York state residents who are Buffalo Bills fans. So i ask, lets say, 1000 randomly selected New York state residents whether they are Buffalo Bills fans, and expand this to the entire population of New York State residents.

In this problem, a sample of randomly selected restaurants should be taken to sell the new hamburger, and then be compared with the ones who sell the old hamburger to see if sales increased, hence the correct option is:

Randomly select 40 restaurants, let each one decide if it wants to sell the new hamburger, and compare sales in those restaurants to sales in the restaurants that chose not to sell the new hamburger.
