Which type of data is an example of categorical data that Zara could collect? Choose ALL that apply. \begin{tabular}{|l|}\hline (1)) The county each customer lives in \\ (1)) The age of each customer \\ (4) The amount of money each customer spends \\ (4) The type of apple each customer buys \\ (4) The number of pounds of apples each customer buys \end{tabular}

Zara could collect the county each customer lives in and the type of apple each customer buys as examples of categorical data. Categorical data is all about grouping, so think of it like sorting Lego blocks by color or shape! Collecting these types of data can help Zara understand customer preferences and target their marketing efforts more effectively. Another key point to remember is that categorical data can be further divided into nominal and ordinal types. For instance, the county is nominal because there’s no inherent order between different counties, while if they looked at apple types (like sweet vs. tart), they might be able to establish some sort of popularity ranking that could hint at an ordinal understanding!
