Answer:

B. weight of a bag of apples

Explanation:

A continuous random variable is a variable that is measured not counted. It can be any number between integers in decimal form.

So from the options given above, only the weight of bag of apples is a continuous variable as it will be measured.

While the others cannot be expressed in the form of decimals.

So the correct answer is:

B. weight of a bag of apples ..
