Answer:

C.) The house has two floors

Step-by-step explanation:

Quantitative data describes the quantity of or numerical information associated with something.

A.) is incorrect because something being "far" from something else does not have any specific measurable attributes. If it were to give you the exact distance, this could be an answer.

B.) is incorrect because the color of something is a physical property, not a numerical property.

C.) is correct because it describes the exact quantity of something. By saying there are 2 floors, you are given an measurement which describes the house.

D.) is incorrect because "big" is relative. Again, if you described how big the house is with measurements, this could be a quantitative observation.
