1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 12
These numbers are the numbers on 6 lottery balls.
What if we wanted to increase our chances of winning?
What number should we put our money on?
Here, you would find the "most common" number.
Since the data in ascending order, you can easily spot
the repeats.
Sometimes there is no mode, sometimes there is one mode,
but it is possible to have more than one mode as well!
This gives the MODE: the value that occurs most often.
There are 6 items. There are two values of 1. 1 is the mode!
The MODE is 1, so I would put my money on number 1!!
