Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The mean, median, and mode are applicable to both continuous and discrete variables. They are all measures of central tendency, which describe the typical or central value of a set of data. The level of measurement (interval or ratio) does not affect their applicability. However, they may not be appropriate for nominal level variables that have no order or arithmetic meaning. Therefore, choice C is the best answer because it includes both continuous and discrete variables.
