Craig sees an advertisement for a car in a newspaper. Which

information would not be classified as quantitative?

(1) the cost of the car (3) the model of the car

(2) the car's mileage (4) the weight of the car

1) the cost of the car

because if the person said the cost of the car it would sound less interesting and too expensive to persuade the person that's seeing the advertisement to buy the car.

"Quantitative" information is information that consists of numbers

and tells you the measure (quantity) of something.

The cost, mileage, and weight of the car are all quantitative items.

The model of the car may have numbers in it, but it doesn't tell

the measure of anything. It isn't quantitative data.
