Respuesta

B. The variable is discrete because the data will have gaps between successive, possible values.**

Explicación

The number of languages spoken by different people is a countable quantity (e.g., 1 language, 2 languages, etc.) and cannot take on fractional or decimal values (e.g., 1.5 languages). Therefore, it is a discrete variable with gaps between successive values.
