The number of cups coffee sold in the caferteria during lunch is it continuous or discrete?

The number of cups of coffee sold in the cafeteria during lunch is discrete. Here's why:

* Discrete Data: Discrete data can only take on specific, separate values. You can't have half a cup of coffee sold.

* Continuous Data: Continuous data can take on any value within a range.

Since you can only sell whole cups of coffee, the number of cups sold is a discrete value.
