Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -The waist measurement and foot length are examples of a continuous data set. The shoe size and the dress size are examples of a discrete data set.
Detailed explanation-2: -Since there are only eight possible dress sizes, it would be considered quantitative and discrete.
Detailed explanation-3: -– Is shoe size discrete or continuous? Shoe size is a discrete variable since it takes on distinct values such as 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, etc.. Because there is a finite number of values between any 2 shoe sizes, we can answer the question: What is the next value for shoe size after, for example 5.5?
