How many modes does this data set:
How many modes does this data set:
The mode of a data set is the element that occurs most frequently. If there is a tie between the frequencies of two (three, etc.) elements, the set has two (three, etc.) modes.
Here, though, only one element (8) appears four times, with no other element appearing more frequently. 8 is the only mode.

Identify the mode(s) in the set of numbers below:
The mode(s) of a set of numbers is the number(s) that appear the most frequently. If the numbers in a set only appear once, the set does not have a mode.
In this number set, 
and 
appear in the list three times, more often then any other numbers. So, 
and 
are the modes.
The mode(s) of a set of numbers is the number(s) that appear the most frequently. If the numbers in a set only appear once, the set does not have a mode.

Which of the following elements can be added to the data set
to give it exactly one mode?
I:
II:
III:
The mode of the data set is the most frequently occurring element. In the set given, 4 occurs three times, 5 occurs three times, 6 occurs two times, and 3 and 7 occur one time each.
If 4 is added to the data set, then it occurs four times, more than any other element, so it becomes the unique mode; a similar argument holds for 5. If 6 is added to the set, then each of 4, 5, and 6 occur three times, and the set becomes one with three modes.
The correct answer is therefore I and II only.

Given the data set 
, let 
be the mean of the set, 
be the median of the set, and 
be the mode of the set. Which of the following is true?
Given the data set
The mean of a data set is the sum of its elements divided by the number of elements, which here is 10:
The median of a data set with an even number of elements is the mean of the middle two values when the set is arranged in ascending order; the middle numbers are 5 and 10, so the median is
The mode of a data set is the most frequently occurring element, which here is 5, so
.
The correct response is

What is the modeprice of the items?
The modeof a set of numbers is the number with the highest frequency (meaning that it shows up the most).
Only one number appears twice in this list - $10.
$8, $10, $6, $7, $10, $2, $5, $3, $4
$10 is the mode.
