How is the mode of a data set defined? it is the middle value of the set. it is the most common value in the set. it is the average of the different values in the set. it is the difference between the highest and lowest values of the set.

Option B, it is the most common value in the set

Explanation:

A mode represents “ a number/value” that has occurred maximum number of times in a given set of data. In order to find a mode, the data set is arranged in ascending or descending order and then the number of times each value has occurred is counted. The value/number which has the highest count has occurred maximum number of times in the data set and thus it can be said it is the most common value in the data set.
