Answer is D

Option D is correct: to display both Date and Time, the Date/Time data type must be selected.

To clarify the confusion between options B and D: there is also a Phone Number data type available. On the form, navigate to Configure → Form Layout → Create New Field, and you will find Phone Number listed among the available data types.

Option D. is not correct.

You should create a field of data type - Date/time to accurately store date and time of day.

 

I mean correct option is D
