Q
Q: If the mode of the data set 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6 is removed, what is the new mode?
Solution: Removing 5 leaves 2, 3, 4, 4, 6. The new mode is 4.
Steps: 5
Step 1: Identify the original data set: 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6.
Step 2: Determine the mode of the original data set. The mode is the number that appears most frequently. In this case, 5 appears three times, which is more than any other number.
Step 3: Remove the mode (5) from the data set. The new data set is: 2, 3, 4, 4, 6.
Step 4: Find the mode of the new data set (2, 3, 4, 4, 6). The number 4 appears twice, which is more than any other number.
