Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: D

The correct matching is A-II, B-IV, C-I, D-III. Ordinal scales represent ordered categories like satisfaction levels (A-II). Ratio scales have a true zero point, applicable to salary data (B-IV). Nominal scales classify unordered categories such as hair color (C-I). Interval scales measure differences without a true zero, fitting temperature in Celsius (D-III).
