So Qualitative data is data about characteristics or data that can't really be estimated.

An example would be like

- The softness of a cat.

- The color of the sky.

Quantitative data is data all about amount or is data that can be estimated and recorded with numbers.

An example is

- The age of your car.

-The number of hairs on you knuckle
