Answer 1

The answer is:

Categorical variables represent types of data which may be divided into groups. Here the student nail color can be divided into different colors like red, blue, orange, green, etc.

All the remaining variables are numerical data.

• Amount of snow can be measured (say in kgs or litres)
• Student weight can be measured (in pounds or kgs)
• Number of college students is count data
