Question

The mode of 2,5,2,7,p,5,3,8 is 5 then find p

Answer 1

Answer: p=5

Explanation:

Mode:- It is observation which occurs most frequently in the Data. Mode is the value of that variate for which frequency is the maximum.

2 and 5 occurs two times

but the mode of 2,5,2,7,p,5,3,8 is 5

Therefore, p=5

Answer 2

Given:

Series =  2,5,2,7,p,5,3,8

Mode = 5

To Find:

Value of p = ?

Solution:

As we know,

Mode seems to be the value of such a variate by which the limit would be the frequency.

In the given question 2 as well as 5 for 2 occasions and the mode given is 5. As we can see that 5 is greater than 2.

So that the value of "p" will be "5".
