Step 1: The number of burglaries reported each month in a city is a discrete variable.[Discrete variables assume values that can be counted.]
Step 2: The number of business units a person has is a discrete variable.
Step 3: The number of workers in a factory is a discrete variable.
Step 4: The amount of calcium contained in a glass of milk is a continuous variable.[Continuous variables can assume all values between any two specific values. They are obtained by measuring.]
Step 5: So, I - D, II - D, III - D, IV - C.
