The CEO of a company wants to determine if taking the employees to a company retreat would boost their morale. He decides to use a random number table to survey a simple random sample of 50 of the 250 employees. Which of the following correctly labels the population of employees?

The population contains 250 employees, so each employee should receive a unique label from 1 through 250. Because the labels need the same number of digits for use with a random number table, write them as 001 through 250. Thus, the correct choice is “001–250.”
