Step-by-step explanation:

Discrete variable

Discrete variables are numerical variables that have a countable number of values between any two values. A discrete variable is always numerical. For example, the number of people with blood type Upper A in a random sample of 42 people.

Continuous variable

Continuous variables are numerical variables that have an infinite number of values between any two values. A continuous variable can be numeric or date / time. For example, the time it takes to fly from City Upper A to City Upper B.
