Question

Consider the data: $2,x,3,4,5,2,4,6,4$ where $x>2$
The mode of the data is _____

• A. $2$
• B. $3$
• C. $4$
• D. $5$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $4$

The value which occurs the maximum number of times in a given set of data is know as mode.

In the given data $4$ occurs 3 times and hence it is the mode. But $x$ is unknown.

We know that $x>2$

Hence even if we consider $x$ as $3,4,5or6$ still $4$ will remain as the mode.

Hence $4$ is the ans.
