Example Question #29 : Mode
Give the mode of the data set:
The mode of a data set is the value that occurs the most frequently. If the data values are arranged in order, the set looks like this:
1 occurs three times, more than any other element. This makes 1 the mode.
Example Question #30 : Mode
What is the mode of this set?
To find the mode, we must first set our data in order from least to greatest. This will help us see more clearly the answer and how many of each number we have.
We can see that 
Our answer is 
Example Question #31 : Mode
What is the mode in this set?
The mode is the number that repeats itself the most in a set.
Our answer is

Therefore the price of the cheeseburger on Wednesday is 
Example Question #1 : Other Data Calculations
Cynthia earned

For a treat, Sandy the dog ate 
To find out how many slices of roast beef Jeff needs to buy in a week we first need to calculate how many slices of roast beef Sandy eats in a week.
