Answer: The value is a statistic.

The term 'survey' in statistics refers to a method of inferring some information about a population by collecting data from a sample that is from the same population.

The numerical inferences from a sample are known as statistics, while the numerical inferences from a population are known as parameters.

Since the study referred to in the question above is a survey, the numerical value given above is a statistic.
