How are the concepts of quantitative and qualitative related?

a) both refer to the magnitude of a property. Quantitative determines specific numbers (880.0 Hz, 50m/s). Qualitative compares 2 things in relative terms (smaller, softer, dimmer)

b) both refer to the magnitude of a property. Quantitative compares 2 things in relative terms (larger, louder, brighter). Qualitative determines specific numbers (440.0 Hz, 80m/s)

c) The concepts of quantitative and qualitative are not related at all.

c) The concepts of quantitative and qualitative are not related at all.

Explanation:

Quantitative properties are those which can be compared by its magnitude only

so it is always in relative terms like we can compare them by which one is larger and which one is smaller

Qualitative terms are those which will compare the quality of two like which one is better in terms of given property

so here we can say that quantitative and qualitative terms is not comparable

hence correct answer will be

c) The concepts of quantitative and qualitative are not related at all.
