To determine the total number of people polled, we need to add up the number of students and workers surveyed.
From the table, we see that there are:
- 48 students
- 118 workers
Adding these two groups together:
[tex]\[ 48 \text{ students} + 118 \text{ workers} = 166 \text{ people} \][/tex]
So, the total number of people polled is:
[tex]\[ 166 \][/tex]
Therefore, the correct answer is:
[tex]\[ \boxed{166} \][/tex]
