Question

Kali decided to keep a log of how much money she spent on lunch at school each day for three weeks. Her data included the following numbers:

Week 1: $2.50, $3.00, $2.75, $3.00, $2.50

Week 2: $3.00, $2.50, $2.75, $2.50, $3.00

Week 3: $2.50, $2.75, $2.50, $3.00, $2.50

What is the mode of this data?

Answer

In order to find mode, we must determine which number occurs most often in the data set. In this particular set, $ occurs times, $ occurs times, and $ occurs times. Since $ occurs the most often, it is the mode for this set of data.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Which measure of central tendency would you use to find the term that is most occuring?

Answer

Mode is the number that occurs most often, so that is the correct answer. Median is the middle number, while mean is the average of the set. Range is the difference between the greatest and least numbers.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Consider the data set

Which of the following elements replaces the box to make 30 the mode of the data set?

Answer

Regardless of what value replaces the box, 40 will still be the most frequently appearing element in the set (four times, more than any other element) - that is, 40 will be the mode.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Which is the greater quantity?

(A) The mode of the data set

(B) The median of the data set

Answer

Arrange the elements in ascending order.

The mode of the set is the element that appears most frequently, which here is 15.

The median of the set is the element that appears in the middle, which here is 19.

(B) is greater.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Give the mode of the data set

Answer

No element in the data set appears more than once; for an element to have a mode, that element must appear at least twice. The set has no mode.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Which is the greater quantity?

(A) The number of modes of the data set

(B)

Answer

The mode of a data set is the element that appears most frequently. The given data set has no repeated elements; it is considered to have no modes. (B) is greater.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Which is the greater quantity?

(A) The number of modes of the data set

(B)

Answer

Arrange the data set in ascending order.

18 appears three times; 65 and 79 appear two times each; therefore, 18 is the only mode, and (B) is greater.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Consider the data set

Which of the following elements replaces the box to make 40 the mode of the data set?

(A)

(B)

(C)

Answer

Regardless of what value replaces the box, 40 will still be the most frequently appearing element in the set (four times, more than any other element). By definition, that makes 40 the mode.

Question

On the last day of school,Adam asked each of his classmates how many days of school they missed for the entire school year. He created a stem-and-leaf plot with the information.

0 | 0 0 2 4 5 6 8

1 | 0 0 1 2

2 | 3

4 | 7

What is the mode(s) of the stem-and-leaf plot?

Answer

The mode of a set of data is the value that occurs the most frequently.

Here, 0 occurs twice on the first line, and twice on the second line. These are different values since the left side of the vertical line represents the ten's place. So on the first line, the "0" represents 0, and on the second line the "0" represents 10. So 0 occurs twice, and ten occurs twice.

It is possible to have more than one mode. If multiple values occur more than once, occur the same number of times as each other, and occur more than any other values, then they are both modes.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

Give the mode of the data set below.

Answer

The mode is the term that is repeated most often in a given set. In a set in which no element is repeated, such as this one, there is no mode.

Compare your answer with the correct one above

Question

What is the mode of 43, 23, 56, 44, 47, and 43?

Answer

The mode is the number that appears most frequently. All the numbers appear once, except for 43, which occurs twice. 43 is the mode of this number set.
