What does continuous quantitative data in maths mean?

Continuous quantitative data refers to numerical values that can take any value within a given range, allowing for infinite possibilities between any two values. This type of data is often measured rather than counted, such as height, weight, temperature, or time. Since it can represent fractions or decimals, continuous data can provide detailed insights into variations in measurements. Examples include measurements like 5.5 cm or 72.3 kg, which indicate that data can be infinitely divided into smaller increments.
