Sagot :

Answer: B. both can be arranged in some order

Step-by-step explanation:

At the ordinal level of measurement, data can be ordered in some format however it is not possible to know how much the data vary from each other. For instance: Very Bad, Bad, Good, Very Good. Data can be ordered under this but we won't know just how much of a difference exists.

Interval data can also be ordered and this time we can tell how the data varies from one another for instance by 1 or 2. The only problem here however, is that interval data does not end with zero.
