Find the mode of the data.
From the given data, it can be observed that the maximum class frequency is 18, belonging to class interval 4000 − 5000.
Therefore, modal class = 4000 − 5000
Lower limit (l) of modal class = 4000
Frequency (f1) of modal class = 18
Frequency (f0) of class preceding modal class = 4
Frequency (f2) of class succeeding modal class = 9
Class size (h) = 1000
Therefore, mode of the given data is 4608.7 runs.
