Example Questions

Example Question #451 : Statistics And Probability

Find the mode of the following set of numbers.

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To solve, simply find the most frequent number. Thus, you answer is both  and  since they both appear twice.

Example Question #1882 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following set of numbers:

Possible Answers:

None

Correct answer:

None

Explanation:

The mode is the most frequent number. Since no number occurs more than another, the answer is none.

Example Question #92 : How To Find Mode

This data set represents the quiz scores from a physics class.

What is the mode of this data set?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This problem is asking us to solve for the data set's mode. The mode is merely the number that appears most often in a data set. One way to organize the information to easily see which number occurs most often is by ordering the numbers from least to greatest.

Now we can easily identify that 77 occurs more often than any of the other numbers. Therefore the mode of the set is 77.

Example Question #93 : How To Find Mode

A class of kindergarteners go to an apple orchard for a field trip. The students are allowed to pick apples. The following is a list of how many apples each student picked. 

What is the mode of this data set?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This problem is asking us to solve for the mode for the data set consisting of how many apples each student picked. The mode is merely the number that appears most often in a data set. One way to organize the information to easily see which number occurs most often is by ordering the numbers from least to greatest.

Now we can easily identify that 2 occurs more often than any of the other numbers.

Therefore the mode of the set is 2.

Example Question #94 : How To Find Mode

A group of students recorded data on the amount of rainfall that occurred in their town daily. They recorded the data in inches.

What is the mode of their data set?

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

This problem is asking us to solve for the data set's mode. The mode is merely the number that appears most often in a data set. One way to organize the information to easily see which number occurs most often is by ordering the numbers from least to greatest.

Now we can easily identify that 3 occurs more often than any of the other numbers. Therefore the mode of the set is 3.

Example Question #91 : How To Find Mode

Find the mode of the following dataset:  

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

The mode is the number or numbers with the highest occurrence in a dataset.

There are no numbers in this dataset that have an occurrence more than once.  

Do not confuse mode with the amount of times a particular unit digit shows up.

The answer is:  

Example Question #1881 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following data set:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

Find the median of the following data set:

Whenever we are working with a data set, it can be helpful to put the terms in order:

Now that our terms are in order, we can do all sorts of things with them.

In this case, we need the mode.

The mode is simply the most repeated term in the sequence. 

With our terms in order it should be pretty clear that our mode is 16

Example Question #1881 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following set:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode of any set, find the number which occurs the greatest number of times in the set.  The best answer is:

Example Question #1882 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following set:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode of any set, find the number which occurs the greatest number of times in the set.  The best answer is:

Example Question #1883 : Algebra 1

Find the mode of the following set:

Possible Answers:

Correct answer:

Explanation:

To find the mode of any set, find the number which occurs the greatest number of times in the set.  The best answer is:
