Answer:

a measure of central tendency

Explanation:

The mode of a given data set is a measure of central tendency.

Statistical tools are usually classified as either a measure of central tendency or a measure of dispersion.

A measure of central tendency is a parameter that tends to determine how close a data is to the center. These parameters are mean, median and mode

A measure of dispersion measures how spread a data set is from the mean. These parameters are standard deviation, variance e.t.c
