That's kind of the point. We are not given a choice of 6.8, 7.0, 7.2, 7.4, etc. or something like that. It's an interval and any number along that line can be picked. There's nothing in those rules saying I can't pick 6.9281987 if I choose.
Making, it my mind, continuous rather than discrete. Re-thinking it, I wouldn't think it uniform cause really, what's the chances someone answers 6.9281987? But more importantly, seems like it's continuous. A continuous distribution isn't going to have a definitive set of sample points.
While there's only one way to pick a 7, how many ways are there to pick a number between 6.8 and 22.8? How do you answer that?
Of course, OP is supposed to know what chapter s/he is in, and should post back if there's more details. Difficult out of context.
