Given,

Weights of 9 different students : 54kg, 56kg , 54kg , 57kg , 54kg , 52kg , 54kg , 55kg , 59kg

Arranging the data in ascending order,

52kg, 54kg, 54kg, 54kg, 54kg, 55kg, 56kg, 57kg, 59kg

Median is the middle most observation of the given observations

$\Rightarrow$ Median = 54kg

Mode is the most repeated observation of the given observations

Clearly, 54kg is the most repeated observation

$\Rightarrow$ Mode = 54kg
