Answer:
Quantitative data is data that is referring to a specific quantity or amount, typically with a form of measurement. An example of this type of data would be people with brown eyes vs people with blue eyes. Qualitative data is a conceptual description, things such as opinions and language are qualitive data.
The difference between these two is how they are portrayed. One can be measured through numbers and measurements, while the other cannot and is instead displayed through individual words and meanings.
For example lets take an average liking of a grocery store.
Quantitative data example: On average, out of 500 subjects, people rate this grocery store a 4/5
Qualitative example: The store is well organized and staff is rather accommodating, however lines take a while to get through as there aren't many registers.
