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]
