Solution:

A parameter is a number describing a whole population of data.

A statistic is a number describing a sample of data.

Using the definition above, the following holds;

Options 1 and 2 talks about the entire population of Manila and the Phillipines. Hence it is a parameter.

Options 3, 4, and 5 talks about a sample from the entire population. Hence it is statistics.
