The example that represents a discrete data constraint with viable solutions is:

C. number of tests passed

This is because the number of tests passed can only be whole numbers (0, 1, 2, etc.), which makes it a discrete variable. The other options involve continuous data or averages, which do not fit the definition of discrete data.
