Question

The temperatures for the last 5 days were 31°C, 32°C, 29°C, 26°C and 32°C. The mode of this data set is ______.

• A. 32°C
• B. 21°C
• C. 29°C
• D. 26°C

Answer 1

The correct option is A 32°C

${31}^{\circ }$C occurs 1 time.
${32}^{\circ }$C occurs 2 times.
${29}^{\circ }$C occurs 1 time.
${26}^{\circ }$C occurs 1 time.

We know that the mode is the most frequent observation of the given data

Here, ${32}^{\circ }$C occurs most frequently, so it is the mode.
