The body weights of college students is a ................................
Continuous variable
In statistics a variable is classified by the kind of values it can take. A discrete variable takes only separate, countable values (number of goals, number of players), while a continuous variable can take any value within a range, limited only by the precision of the measuring instrument.
Body weight is measured, not counted. A student may weigh 58 kg, 58.4 kg or 58.43 kg depending on the scale used, so between any two weights another weight is always possible. Weight is therefore a continuous, quantitative variable measured on a ratio scale.
Discrete variable fails because weight is not restricted to whole, countable steps. Qualitative variable fails because weight is numerical, not a category or attribute such as gender or playing position. None of the above is ruled out because one of the listed classes fits exactly.
Continuous variable option is correct.
