Correct Answer Explanation

Classification used in tabulation is of four kinds.

Key Points:
  • Qualitative classification — based on attributes like sex, nationality, social status.
  • Quantitative classification — based on measurable characteristics like age, height, income.
  • Temporal classification — based on time (hours, days, weeks, months, years).
  • Spatial classification — based on place (village, town, district, state, country).
Why Other Options Are Wrong
  • A. Two: This is less than the actual four kinds.
  • B. Three: This misses one type of classification.
  • D. Five: There are only four standard kinds of classification in tabulation.
