How do you work out the mode of something?

Answer 1

Mode in maths is the most common number, or the thing which appears most. It is a type of average. For instance, of the following series of numbers: 1, 2, 3, 1, 1, 2, 1, 1, 4, 1, 5, 2, 1, 1, 6, 1, 6, 1, The mode is 1 because it appears most times.

Answer 2

ok... thinking that you are trying to find the "mode" of a set of scores. The mode is the most frequent score.

For example:

In the array 1,2,1,3,1,4,1,5,1,6 the mode is 1

If you set up the table of all possible answers it becomes obvious.

Number Frequency

1 = 5

2 = 1

3 = 1

4 = 1

5 = 1

6 = 1
