hey i know this is a basic question but i am stuck and not sure what is the right answer

"Match the following variables on the left with their correct types on the right"

Grade in Stat170 -

RANK

School type attended

i am not sure what they are as getting confused between ordinal/nomial and continous

Grade in Stat170 --> could be ratio / continuous if you're graded on a 0-100 scale, or ordinal if you're graded on a A-B-C-D-F scale

RANK --> ordinal

School type attended --> categorical / nominal
