What does mode in maths mean?

Answer 1

The number that is most used.

Answer 2

In a sequences of numbers, the "mode" is the number which appears the most.

Eg:

2, 4, 1, 8, 4, 7, 9, 1, 4, 9, 4

The Mode is 4.

1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 7, 8, 9, 9.

An easy way to remember mode is think of most. For example if you are looking at data of colours of m&m's in a bag, the colour that you count the most is the mode. Or in another case, the number that apears the most
Another Example could be:

look at these numbers, what is the mode?

6, 5, 3, 9, 8, 9, 5.

Here there are two answers 5 and 9 because they both appear twice.

Sometimes there is only one, more than one or no mode.


Mode is a Most frequently occur value in the particular sequence
6,6,5,8,5,8
here there is no mode because all the value repeated twice.

Answer 3

The number that is most used.

Answer 4

The most common or occurring number in a set of numbers.

The mode is the number in a data set that occurs the most often.

Example:

44, 68, 29, 44, 68, 90, 44

The mode of the set of numbers is 44.

Answer 5

In a sequences of numbers, the "mode" is the number which appears the most.

Eg:

2, 4, 1, 8, 4, 7, 9, 1, 4, 9, 4

The Mode is 4.

1, 1, 2, 4, 4, 4, 4, 7, 8, 9, 9.

Answer 6

It means the most common result. For example, if we did a survey of how many videogames people have got and ten people have fewer than 5, thirteen have between five and ten, and eleven have over ten videogames, then 5-10 would be the mode (technically, when it is a group like 5-10 or 7-9 we call it the modal group, but the principle is the same.)
