Answer:Nominal

Explanation:Nominal

Nominal scales labels variables without assigning any quantitative value. Nominal scales can be easily referred to as labels. For example this research has variables measuring the race of a driver :

White American Indian

African American

Hispanic

Multiracial

These scales do not overlap but are mutual exclusive and have no numerical sigficance attached to them.
