a. 17.9
b. 24
c. 18
d. 24
Expert's answer
The mode is the score that occurs most frequently.
The time in months was 24 12 8 20 3 18 24 25 27 [Original data set].
Ordering the number of months from least to greatest, we get:
3 8 12 18 20 24 24 25 27[Arrange in order].
24 occurred two times and no other score occurred more than once.
The score which occurs most often (the mode for the given data) is 24.
