A

B

the observation that occurs for most no. of times in a data set


C

Mode is the observation that occurs for most no. of times in a given data set. There are 3 methods to measure the central tendency of a given data set: Mean, Mode and Median. So, mode is another method to measure the central tendency of a data set.

Frequency of an observation is number of time that particular observation occurs. So, if an observation occurs for maximum number of times, it will have the highest frequency. That particular observation is called mode.
