Solution
The correct option is CStatistical The data collected is clearly statistical data. This is because from the vote cast by each student, the ballots can be counted and the venue for the trip can be finalized based on what the majority of the students want. Since there is some data being collected and consolidated from which a conclusion is to be drawn, the data obtained is statistical.
