B.Quantitative and Discrete
C.Qualitative and Ordinal
D.Quantitative and Continuous

Answer 1

Answer: A.Qualitative and Nominal

Step-by-step explanation:

Qualitative data is defined as a type of data that deals with the characteristics and descriptions that can't be easily measured ( or can't be measured), but can be observed and noticed such as smells, tastes, textures, attractiveness, color etc. And also nominal data are unordered data with no particular ranking, or order or value like the colour of balls in a basket.

Therefore, for the problem above it is a Qualitative and Nominal data because it deals with whether the milk is organic or regular, it has no specific values, orders, or rank it only deals with the description of the data.
