Question

Thomas records the masses of several rocks as 7.40 g, 7.85 g, 7.60 g, and 7.40 g.

What is the mode of Thomas’s data set?

Answer 1

7.4 g

Step-by-step explanation:

The mode is the value that appears most often in a set of data values. If X is a discrete random variable, the mode is the value x at which the probability mass function takes its maximum value. In other words, it is the value that is most likely to be sampled. Since 7.4 g is repeated twice then it is the mode in the set of numbers. I hope I've helped.
