In mathematics what is the mode?

Question

I forgot over summer...

Answer 1

It is the number that comes up the most. For example,

24, 67,45,24,24,67,24,05,24 the mode would be 24

Answer 2

Like, you know, easy, medium, hard, expert...

:) it's the number that appears most in a set of numbers.

Answer 3

The number with the highest frequency within a group of numbers.

Answer 4

Usually in the form of mean-median-mode:

Mean (arithmetic - there are others):  Sum of all values divided by number of values.

Median:  Middle element of a sorted list.

Mode:  The most frequent value.  It is possible to have multiple modes or none.  e.g.  3, 5, 7, 7, 9, 9, 12, 14  has modes of 7 and 9, each of which appear twice.

Answer 5

The mode of a population or sample is the datum that occurs most often  

Answer 6

the most common number

Answer 7

the most common occurring number in the group

Answer 8

the mode is the number that appears the most times within a set of numbers. for example, you have a set of numbers: 1,4,3,6,2,4,1,2,4

the number 4 would be the mode because it appears 3 times not just twice or once..

Answer 9

Most frequent number.

Answer 10

The mode is something you will use in statistics, and it means "the number that appears most often" in a statistical report.  I had trouble remembering the difference between mean, median and mode, too.  Here is the little trick that I used.

Mean = Average  - It's the only word here with an a in the beginning.

Median = The number in the middle - This word is the only one that has an i in it, and so does the word "middle".

Mode = is the number that appears most Often - this word, mode, has an O in it, just like Often - none of the others have an o in them.

This will help you if you remember it.  It should not be hard to remember.  All you have to do is look at the word and remember what it means when you see that one particular letter in it.
