Example Questions

Example Question #85 : How To Find Mode

A group of students were recording the weather for two weeks for a science project. Here was their data set:

What is the mode of their data set?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The mode is the number that appears most often in your set. In this case we will be looking at which temperature appears most often.

 Mode temperature

This is one simple way of organizing data to indicate the mode. Each number that appeared in the data set was written down. Each "X" written above each number indicates each time it was present in the set. We see that 84 appeared most often. Therefore, 84 is the mode of the data set.

Example Question #446 : Statistics And Probability

What is the mode of this class's state exam results if the scores are the following?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The mode is the number that appears most often in your set. In this case we will be looking at which score appears most often. 

Mode exam

This is one simple way of organizing data to indicate the mode. Each number that appeared in the data set was written down. Each "X" written above each number indicates each time it was present in the set. We see that 87 appeared most often. Therefore, 87 is the mode of the data set. 

Example Question #1871 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following number set:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Find the mode of the following number set:

The mode is the most repeated number in a series.

To find the mode we can first arrange the terms in increasing order.

From here it should be pretty clear that our answer is 465. 465 appears 3 times, the next most common number is 22, which only appears twice.

Example Question #1871 : Algebra 1

You take a quiz in class and are shown the results of 10 students. There were 8 questions and the score is given as 1-8. Find the mode of the following results:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode, you can make a number line and place an "x" for every occurance of a score or number. 

Mode

The mode of a data set is the value which appears most often. In this case the mode is 7 since it occurred 3 times.

Example Question #87 : How To Find Mode

Find the mode of the dataset:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The definition of mode is the highest frequency of numbers in the dataset.

The is one , and three of each .

Therefore, the mode must be .

The answer is: 

Example Question #1872 : Algebra 1

Find the mode in the following sets of numbers:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode, we simply locate the number that occurs most often.  

In this set of numbers

the number 10 occurs three times which is the most often.

Example Question #1874 : Algebra 1

What is the mode of the data set: 4 4 2 3 3 2 3 1 1 2 3 2 2 2 1 14 2

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode, count the number of times that each point appears in the data set:

2 is in the data set 7 times

3 is only in the data set 4 times

4 is only in the data set twice, and 1 appears 3 times.

Example Question #1875 : Algebra 1

What is the mode of the following dataset?  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The mode is the number or numbers with the highest frequency that occurs in the dataset.  Each number appears only once in this dataset.

Be careful not to include numbers that are not part of the dataset.

There is:  

Example Question #93 : How To Find Mode

Find the mode of the following data set:

3, 9, 5, 4, 4, 10, 9, 2, 3, 1, 0, 9

Possible Answers:

12

10

4

9

0

Correct answer:

9

Explanation:

The mode of a data set is simply the number that occurs most frequently.  In this case, the number 9 occurs most frequently, appearing 3 times.  

Therefore, the mode of the given data set is 9.

Example Question #1876 : Algebra 1

Find the mode:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The mode is the number or numbers that occur the most frequently in a dataset.

Simplify all the fractions in the dataset.

We can then see that  occurs twice, as every other number appears only once in the dataset.

The mode is:
