What is the mode of 36,24,17,36 and 54

The mode of 36, 24, 17, 36 and 54 is 36

Solution:

Given that we have to find the mode of given set of data

Given set of data is:

36, 24, 17, 36, 54

Let us understand about meaning of mode

The mode is the most common number in a data set or the number which appears most often in a set of numbers

To easily find the mode, put the numbers in order from least to greatest and count how many times each number occurs. The number that occurs the most is the mode

36, 24, 17, 36, 54

Arranging in order we get,

17, 24, 36, 36, 54

Here, 36 occurs two times

So the mode of given set of data is 36
