Question

How do you work out mode if you have 2 possible numbers?I'm only 9 so don't judge me.

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode of a data set is the number that occurs most often, but if your data set has more than one number occurring same number times, then both the numbers will be considered as mode of the data set.  This is called Bi-modal.

Further for a data set the mode may or may not exist, and there may be more than one value for the mode.

For example,

we have data set 63, 62, 66, 67, 63, 70, 67, 68, 61.

As a first step , we arrange in ascending order which means

                             61, 62, 63, 63, 66, 67, 67, 68, 70.

Now check the occurrence

                              61, 62, 63, 63, 66, 67, 67, 68, 70.

                                1   1         2        1        2       1      1

So as you can see both 63 and 67 occur twice and thus the mode of this data set is both 63 and 67.

Hope this answers your question.
