Answer: C. Quantitative

Explanation: Quantitative analysis (QA) is a method that seeks to understand characteristics by using mathematical and statistical modeling, measurement, and research. The aim of such technique is to give a numerical value to a certain situation.

It is a method of collecting measurable and verifiable data in order to understand the relationship between them and predict likely outcomea from the analysis of such data.

Such data must be discrete, meaning piossibility of certain outcomes must be guaranteed, the numerical data must be countable and possibilities of outcomes must be continuous.
