• B. $12$
• C. $8$ and $11$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $8$ and $11$

Concept: The mode of a given data set is defined as the value which occurs most frequently in the data set. It can be bimodal or trimodal, i.e., the mode can have two or three values.

Arrange the given data in ascending order to find which value or values occur most frequent,


It can be observed that there are $2$ values which occur most frequent in the given data set of number of gifts wrapped on each day of the week.

Thus the given data is bimodal with mode values $8$ and $11$.
