Question

A scoutmaster is preparing his troop for their annual fishing expedition. He surveys each of his scouts to find out how many fishing poles they own. What is the mode of the number of poles owned?

Answer 1

The mode is the value that appears most often in a set of data values.

So going through the set of data, we will see that the number that appears the most is 7 (seven scouts) and it is associated with 0 fishing poles owned.

So the mode of the number of poles owned is 0.
