Answer:

Interval Data

Step-by-step explanation:

Interval data are classified as such because they have a definite ordering and the differences between data sets can be determined and measured. This is applied in the measurement of temperature readings.

The data provided in the example can be ordered from lowest to highest and vice versa and the differences between the temperature ranges can be measured. For example, the difference between 76 degrees fahrenheit and 71 degrees fahrenheit is 5 degrees fahrenheit. However, comparisons in the form of ratios are not done with the temperature readings in the interval scale.
