Classification of the population based on mother tongue is an example of :

  • A.Geographical Classification
  • B.Chronological Classification
  • C.Qualitative Classification
  • D.Quantitative Classification

Answer: C

Classification by mother tongue is qualitative classification.

Data are classified qualitatively when they are grouped by an attribute that cannot be measured numerically, such as language, religion, sex or occupation. Mother tongue is such an attribute: people can be counted in each language group, but the language itself is not a number.

Geographical classification groups data by place (state or district), chronological by time (year or month), and quantitative by a measurable variable such as age, height or income.
