Answer:

Explanation:

A characteristic, number, or quantity whose value changes overtime is called variable. For example: weight, income etc. It can be either discrete or continuous.

         

                   Discrete Variable

• A variable that takes only whole number as its value is called discrete variable.

• These variables increase in jumps or incomplete numbers.

• For example- Number of people in a family, number of students in a class, etc.

                    Continuous Variable

• A variable that can take any value, within a reasonable limit is called a continuous variable.

• These variables assume a range of values or increase in fractions and not in jumps.

• For example- age, height, weight, etc.
