A class of 12 girls and 14 boys is going to choose 3 students to represent them in student government. Allie suggested that the first 3 students to arrive in class the next day should be the representatives. Bobby suggested that each student roll 2 numbers cubes and the 3 students with the highest sum should be the representatives. Whose method would result in a fair sample that represents the class population, and why?
