Question 14 • Chemistry Honors A

How is the mode of a data set defined?

Answer
A
It is the middle value of the set.
B
It is the most common value in the set.
C
It is the average of the different values in the set.
D
It is the difference between the highest and lowest values of the set.

Explanation

The mode is the value that appears most often in a data set. For example, in 2, 3, 3, 5, the mode is 3 because it occurs more often than the other values. The middle value is the median, and the difference between the highest and lowest values is the range.
