<strong>Mode</strong><br />

<strong>Mode</strong> is the number that happens the most in a set <strong>of</strong> data.<br />

Example 1:<br />

Find the mode in the following set <strong>of</strong> numbers:<br />

13, 6, 24, 32, 24, 13, 24, 22, 24, 27<br />

Look for the number that happened the most. The mode is 24.<br />

Example 2:<br />

Find the mode in the following set <strong>of</strong> numbers:<br />

5, 3, 7, 1, 5, 11, 5, 8, 3, 12, 3<br />

This data set has two modes: 3 and 5<br />

because they both happened the most.<br />

It is possible to have no<br />

mode, one mode, or<br />

more than one mode.<br />

Example 3:<br />

Find the mode in the following set <strong>of</strong> numbers:<br />

7, 12, 8, 13, 6, 5, 9, 3<br />

This data set has no mode.
