what does mode mean in statistics???

Question

I really need to know what mode means and if you can answer please give me an example???

Answer 1

mode: highest frequency

If you have a discrete case, then this means this is the value that is most seen.

Say you roll two dice 15 times and note the sum of the outcomes. If the sum of 7 comes out 10 times (of course the others can occur at most 5 times by then), the mode is 7.

In the continuous case, if you can graph the distribution, then this is the x-value with the highest y-value.

Answer 2

the mode is the number that repeats most often. for example......out of 1, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 7. so the mode would be 5.

Answer 3

most common i think 1 3 3 3 4 4 5 5 6 7

3would be the mode

Answer 4

the most frequent number between a gruop of numbers
example
take these numbers 1 2 3 3 3 4 4 5 6 6
the mode is 3 because its repeated 3 times
another example
take these numbers 1 2 2 3 4 4 5 6
in this case there is no mode necause 2 and 4 both are repeated twice
thats it

Answer 5

mode is the number that repeats the most in a series of numbers...such as 12 25 38 25 36 78 69 12 2 25
in this series the mode would be 25

Answer 6

Mode is the numbers that repeat the most. Take the following sequence for an example:
12,14,14,14,15,16,17,18

The mode is 14.

Answer 7

mode is the most frequently recurring item.

mean is average, median is middle. in the group of numbers

2 5 6 8 6 7 6 1 2 6

6 is the mode, since it occurs four times

Answer 8

If you have a set of discrete observations, the mode is the value of the the most-frequently occuring observation. It is of some value in estimating the mean, since for normal distribution, the mode should occur with values near the mean. However, it doesn't have much theoretical value.

Answer 9

Statistics are like cow pies. To decide which cow likely produced a cow pie you need a place to insert a stick to measure the distance from the stick to each of the cows in the field. The best place to insert the stick is the center of each cow pie. This is because the poop tends to concentrate mostly in the center and is most predictive of the position of the cow pie, also called "central tendency".

The shorter the distance measured, the more likely the cow produced the cow pie.

Mean is the numerical average of the cow pie.
Median is the spot where half the cow pie is on each side of the stick.
Mode is where the cow pie is the highest/ most frequent.

Statistics does not have to be difficult. Schools just need to hire instructors who can communicate.

Answer 10

it is the number that occurs most in a set of data:

example: if you have the numbers

5, 6, 8, 4, 3, 4, 7, 10

the mode would be 4 because it occurs twice and the most
