Answer: Ryan conducted a survey where he asked about qualitative data.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that there are two kinds of data :
Quantitative data which deals with numbers and elements we can count or measure such as: dimensions such as height, width, and length.
Qualitative data which deals with characteristics and descriptors that can't be counted or measured, but can be observed by its quality such as smells, tastes and color.
If we have asked for the amount of data then the survey would be quantitative. Recycling of data means quality of data available.
Given that Ryan wanted to know whether the schools have a recycling program.
This means the survey conducted by Ryan for qualitative data.
