Math Mode and Range Tutorial.

  


Mode Definition:
     Mode is the most frequently occurring value in a frequency distribution.


  Example: To find the mode of 11,3,5,11,7,3,11
      Step 1:Arrange the numbers in ascending order.
          3,3,5,7,11,11,11

      Step 2:
        In the above distribution
          Number 11 occurs 3 times,
          Number 3 occurs 2 times,
          Number 5 occurs 1 times,
          Number 7 occurs 1 times.
          So the number with most occurrances is 11 and is the Mode of this distribution.
          Mode = 11


Range Definition:
      Range is the difference between the highest and the lowest values in a frequency distribution.


  Example: To find the range in 3,5,7,3,11
      Step 1:Arrange the numbers in ascending order.
          3,3,5,7,11

      Step 2:
        In the above distribution
       The largest number is11
        The smallest value is 3
        Formula = largest number - smallest number
        Range = 11-3 = 8
