Answer: Systematic Sampling

This is the type of sampling where we apply a set rule to determine who is selected.
The common template of systematic sampling is when we have something like "we select every nth person" where n is some positive integer and n > 1.
For instance, if n = 5, then it would update to "we select every 5th person".
