Determine the level of measurement of the variable. Livability rankings for cities Choose the correct level of measurement. A. Ratio. B. Ordinal. C. Nominal. D. Interval.

B. Ordinal

Step-by-step explanation:

The level of measurement used for a variable in statistical analysis determines what summary statistics and analysis are possible. In statistical analysis, we have three types of level of measurement.

Nominal , Ordinal  , Interval/ Ratio

The nominal is the most basic level of measurement. It is the  qualitative level of measurement such as color or number.  Data in Nominal scale of measurement are  stored as a word or  as numerical code.

Ordinal level of measurement  are variables based on ranks or hierarchy. Ordinal level of measurement posses a sequential step-wise order but the intervals between the variables are not  equal. They are usually expressed in frequencies.

Therefore, the level of measurement of variable that determines the livability rankings for cities based on their ranks or hierarchy is Ordinal.

The interval/ratio level of measurement  is the highest  level of measurement where  data are  being measured and ordered in a sequential process.
