↦ Here, the question has given us the data that is 2, 5, 8, 1, 7, 2, 5, 2, 2, 2, 7. Now, the question has asked us to find the mode of the given data. So, in finding mode arrange the data and observe that the observation which is repeated frequent times will be the mode.

ANSWER:-

⇨ The mode of the given data is 2.

GIVEN:-

★ Data = 2, 5, 8, 1, 7, 2, 5, 2, 2, 2, 7

TO FIND:-

➝ Mode of given data = ?

HOW TO SOLVE:-

Arrange the data.

The most frequent number will be the mode.

SOLVING STEP BY STEP:-

⇒ Data = 2, 5, 8, 1, 7, 2, 5, 2, 2, 2, 7

⇒ Arranging the data = 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5, 5, 7, 7, 8

⇒ No. of times a number is repeated = ⬇

1 is repeated 1 time.

2 is repeated 5 times.

5 is repeated 2 times.

7 is repeated 2 times.

8 is repeated 1 time.

⇒ Highest No. of times a term is repeated = 5

⇒ Most frequent no. = 2 [As it is repeated 5 times.]

Thus, we got the answer. So, the mode of the given data is 2.
