Resolved: Sample Standard Error

In 4.2.+Population+variance+known,+z-score_exercise the solution to Standard Error uses the population standard deviation to calculate it. Isn't the standard error calculated with the sample's standard deviation?
Can you please clarify?

Hi Wilson,
Please note that In this case, we know the population standard deviation. This is why we can use it.
Best,
Ned
