Why is the mode important?

Answer 1

When you collect data, you often find that some of it is the same. If you measure how tall a group of people are to the nearest centimetre, you are likely to find several people of the same height. Then there will be less people a centimetre lower, or higher, and so on. Obvious this number which happens more than any other in the set is important. This is the mode. When you make a make a pictogram, the mode will stick out most.
