What is the level of measurement of the data set? Explain your reasoning.
- Interval. The data can be ordered and difference between data entries are meaningful, but a zero entry is not an inherent zero.
- Nominal. No mathematical computations could be made.
- Ordinal. The data can be arranged in order, or ranked but difference data entries are not meaningful.
- Ratio. The data can be ordered and differences between data entries are meaningful, and a zero entry is an inherent zero.
Answer – Option 1. Interval. The data can be ordered and the difference between data entries is meaningful, but a zero-entry is not an inherent zero.
