The mode of the data at 28°C is 84.  The correct option is D.

What is a mode?

In statistics, the mode is the variate with the highest frequency of occurrence in a given data. The mode is one of the attributes used to measure how centralized the variates within a data set are.

Mode is used as a measure of central tendency because:

  • It is very easy to calculate
  • It is not affected by outliers
  • It is useful to define the properties of a data set

In this case, we are to find the mode of the data at 28°C. The data at this location is 86, 84, 83, and 84.

86 occur just once, 84 occur twice, while 83 also occur just once in the 4 elements data set.

Thus, the mode here is 84 which occurs twice.
