Question

On the basis of collection of data, data can be

• A. Numerical data
• B. Categorical Data
• C. Both $\left(a\right)$ and $\left(b\right)$.
• D. None

Answer 1

The correct option is C Both $\left(a\right)$ and $\left(b\right)$.

Data can be numerical or categorical on the basis of collection of data,
When every value in the data collected is a number, then the data is said to be numerical.
On the other hand, the data which consists of non-numerical information that can be categorised into different groups is said to be categorical.

so, option $\left(c\right)$ correct.
