Answer:

C. The managers used a stratified sample

Step-by-step explanation:

The managers divided the company into groups, or strata, with similar characteristics and then take a simple random sample within each group. This process is a clear application of the stratified sampling method since all groups were considered and then individually sampled (unlike in cluster sampling).

Therefore, the answer is C. The managers used a stratified sample
