This problem wants us to figure out the mode for the data set that we're given of 4, 6, 8, 6, 3, 6, 8, 7, 9, 4, 3, 8, and 6, 8.
00:11
And what we need to remember about the mode is it's the number or the value that occurs the most frequently, in other words, the one that shows up the most.
00:18
So what we can do is write our observations down as we see and keep a tally mark to see how frequently they show up until we've accounted for every value.
00:26
So first we see a 4 and we know we now can see that we have 1, 2, 4s.
00:34
So we'll create our tally mark to show that 4 has 2 4s observed and then we'll just move our way down the list.
00:40
So next we have a 6 and we have 1, 2, 3, 4 6s.
00:47
So that's 4 tally marks for 6.
00:49
Next we have 8.
00:50
And for 8 we will have 1, 2, 3, 4 as well.
00:55
So that's 1, 2, 3, 4 marks there...
