Prior to an election, a news editor wanted to view the opinions of randomly selected people. Some two digit numbers were randomly generated, as shown in the picture, and starting with $37$37, the editor would choose a number $3$3 to the right, $1$1 down (so that the next number chosen would be $57$57). The numbers chosen were the ages of the people she would survey.

In a study of asthma sufferers, a group of people were asked to identify which category they fit into:
- A - developed asthma from ages $0$0 to $10$10
- B - developed asthma in their teens
- C - developed asthma in their twenties
- D - developed asthma after the age of $30$30
Researchers then generated random values between $0$0 and $1$1 to decide which groups to choose participants from.

A television station wants to estimate the number of viewers it had for a new show. They know that the country's population is $13620000$13620000.
