A continuous variable is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.
So, The weight of students in a class is an example of continuous variable.

A discrete variable is a variable whose value is obtained by counting.
So, height of animals in a park is not a discrete variable. 
Because the height will not be same for all animal, it may varying in height. 
example: elephant - $4$ m, tiger - $2$ m, giraffe - $10$ m

A discrete variable is a variable whose value is obtained by counting.
So, number of bubbles in a fish tank is countable.

A continuous variable is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.
Example: The weight of a cat is a continuous variable as it can take any value - for example, $2$ kg, $4$ kg, $3.2$ kg etc.

A continuous variable is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.
So, distance travelled from classes is an example of continuous variable.

A continuous variable is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.
The height of animals in park is a continuous variable.
Because the animals have different heights.

Continuous variable has the infinite set of the data.
So, weight of a newborn is an example of continuous variable.
Because the weight may vary from $2.3$ kg, $3.1$ kg, $4$ kg etc.

Continuous variable has the infinite set of the data.
So, time taken to complete a task is an example of continuous variable.
For example time taken to complete a task will be $1$ minute $10$ seconds, $1$ minute $20$ seconds, and so on.

Continuous variable has the infinite set of the data.
Example: height of students in a class
Each and every students in a class has different heights, like $56.5, 45.9, 67.8$ etc..

A continuous variable is a variable whose value is obtained by measuring.
So, time taken to complete a task is a continuous variable as it can take any value - for example, $2$ hours $2$ mins, $2$ hours $20$ seconds etc..
