Explanation

Continuous data is a type of quantitative data that can take any value within a range and can be measured with infinite precision. Continuous data can be expressed as fractions, decimals, or percentages.Examples of continuous data are height, weight, temperature, time, speed, etc. The duration of a phone call in milliseconds is an example of continuous data, because it can take any value within a range (from zero to infinity) and can be measured with infinite precision (up to milliseconds or even smaller units). The duration of a phone call in milliseconds can also be expressed as fractions, decimals, or percentages of a larger unit (such as seconds, minutes, or
