Final answer:

The mode, option c, indicates how many times every value in a distribution appears.

Step-by-step explanation:

In statistics, the measure that indicates how many times every value in a distribution appears is called the mode. The mode is the value that occurs most frequently in a dataset. It is the most appropriate measure of frequency or occurrence.

For example, let's say we have a dataset of test scores: 75, 85, 90, 85, 80, 90, 75, 75. The mode of this dataset is 75 because it appears three times, which is more than any other value.

Therefore, the correct option is c) Mode.
