Number of times the individual changed jobs in the last 5 years is what kind of variable? A. This variable is a continuous numerical variable that is interval-scaled. B. This variable is a discrete numerical variable that is interval-scaled. C. This variable is a categorical variable that is ordinal-scaled. D. This variable is a discrete numerical variable that is ratio-scaled. E. This variable is a continuous numerical variable that is ratio-scaled. F. This variable is a categorical variable that is nominal-scaled.

D. This variable is a discrete numerical variable that is ratio-scaled.

Step-by-step explanation:

A Discrete variables are variables which are countable in a finite amount of time. For example, you can count the amount of money in your bank wallet, but same can’t be said for the money you have deposited in eveyones bank account as this is infinite.

So the number of times an individual changes job in a five years period is a perfect example of  a discrete numerical variable that is ratio scaled because it can be counted.
