How Do You Find the Mode of a Data Set?

1. A set is just a collection of numbers
1. Ordering the data points from least to greatest will make it easier to find the mode
2. Mark each number to be sure it isn't missed or counted twice
1. Putting the numbers in order makes it easier to see how many times each number occurs
2. Mark each number to be sure it isn't missed or counted twice
1. The mode is the number that occurs most frequently in a data set
2. Since our numbers are now in order, it will be easy to tell how many times each number occurs!
1. All the other numbers in the data set only occur once
1. The mode is the number that occurs most often in a data set
1. The number that occurs more often than any others is the mode
1. The number that occurs most often is the mode
2. 46.4 occurs more than any other number, so it's the mode

Find the mode of the following data set: 46.4, 29.3, 48.2, 35.1, 46.4, 39.5, 41.3, 25.2
