D seems discrete too, but it’s about quantity, not count of items.

I thought discrete data was more about specific values rather than measurements like time or fuel. So, I guess B is the safest bet, but I’m still a bit confused.

I practiced a similar question where we had to identify types of data, and I think discrete data is definitely about counts. B seems to match that definition best.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think discrete data is about whole numbers, right? So maybe D could also fit since it mentions gallons, but it feels a bit off.

I remember we talked about discrete data being countable, so I think option B might be the right choice since it refers to the number of people.
