I answered your other one already, I'll do it again:
Umm, there is no specific function on the calculator, find the one with the most frequency by hand I guess? Or you can download a program that finds it automatically, like Mean Median Mode v1.0 (http://www.ticalc.org/archives/files/fileinfo/145/14574.html ).
In case you've never downloaded before, here's what you do:
1. First, use a transfer software. The standard one is TI Connect. If you don't have the installation CD that came with your calculator, go to the official TI EDUCATION download site at http://education.ti.com/educationportal/appsdelivery/download/download_interim.jsp?applicationId=183&contentPaneId=7 . Choose a language, download, then install.
2. Get a USB cable for the actual download. One came with the calculator, but if you don't have it, they are easy to get and very versatile.
Hope I've helped! =)

The mode most commonly occuring variable is the sequence. So if you have a distribution curve you want to find the x value which produces the highest value on the distribution curve.
This can be done by putting the distribution equation into Y1= and then hitting 2nd - calc - MAX and then entering the upper and lower limits of the distribution curve.
It will find the max value of the curve and also the corresponding x value.
As the mode is the most commonly occuring variable with the highest probability, the x value for the max value on the curve will be the mode.
