Discrete Data Continuous Data

Answer 1

To determine whether the situation represents discrete data or continuous data, you need to consider the characteristics of each type of data:

- **Discrete Data** refers to countable, distinct values. Examples include the number of students in a classroom, the number of pets in a household, or the number of cars in a parking lot. This data can only take certain values and cannot be broken down into smaller parts.

- **Continuous Data** refers to measurable quantities that can take on any value within a range. Examples include height, weight, temperature, or time. This type of data can be infinitely divided into smaller parts.

If you have specific situations or datasets in mind, please provide them, and I can help categorize each as discrete or continuous data accordingly.
