To find the mode you need to put all the numbers given in order, then count them and decide which number occurs the most.

Given the number you have here, we're going to put them in order, like so,

78, 78, 83, 85, 89, 91, 95, 98 (they were in order already)

Now we see which number occurs the most.

The number would be 78

~Hope this helped!

Answer: 78

Step-by-step explanation: The mode is the number that appears most frequently in a data set.

In this data set, every number appears once except for 78 which appears twice. This means that the mode of our data set is 78.

Therefore, the mode of the data set is 78.
