Answer:

The mode is 78

Explanation:

Mode: The digit that has been repeated the most in a specific data.

To determine the mode of the data, let's arrange the data in ascending order.

Arranging the data in ascending form, we get:

  • ⇒ 74, 77, 78, 78, 80, 81, 82, 91, 92

In the ascending data, we can see that: (Refer to underlined and bolded text)

  • 74 has been repeated once
  • 77 has been repeated once
  • 78 has been repeated twice
  • 80 has been repeated once
  • 81, has been repeated once
  • 82 has been repeated once
  • 91 has been repeated once
  • 92 has been repeated once

Since 78 has been repeated the most, 78 is the mode of the data.
