Read each question carefully and follow the instructions to find the mode of each data set.
The mode is the number that appears MOST OFTEN in a set of data.
Example: In the data set {2, 3, 3, 4, 5}, the number 3 appears twice, which is more than any other number. So, the mode is 3.
Find the mode for each set of numbers.
1. {5, 7, 5, 8, 9, 5, 10} Mode:
2. {12, 15, 12, 13, 14, 15, 12} Mode:
3. {20, 21, 22, 21, 23, 21, 20} Mode:
4. {6, 6, 7, 8, 9, 9, 6, 10} Mode:
