Question 5

CorrectNot quiteAnswer D

Correct answer: D

Explanation

  1. Tally: 14 appears 3 times, 18 appears 3 times, every other value once.

  2. Two values share the highest frequency, so the data are bimodal: the modes are 14 and 18.

Worth noting

A list can have more than one mode. 17 is the median, not a mode.

Concept
