More likely to pick a sample with an average more than 68 inches They are equally likely More likely to pick an individual taller than 68 inches It is impossible to tell

Answer 1

The correct option is

It is impossible to tell

Because if we select an individual then his age might be less than 68 and if we select a sample of four then the average of those ages might or might not be 68. Also, the most important thing is the sample size is not known hence whatever approach we take, we cannot be sure about the result.
