Question

Write two merits of mode.

Answer 1

Hint: The definition of the mode is that, in the statistics part, the mode is a value which occurs most of the time in a given set of data values, or the value that appears maximum number of times, or it is a value which repeats more often or most recurring value in the given set of data. Mode is the value of the variable of which the frequency is maximum.

Complete answer:
Mode is a very simple measurable value. It is easy to see that this value is repeating many times or maximum number of times. It is a very popular measure of the central tendency.
$\therefore $ One of the merit is that the mode is simple and popular.
It can also be easily represented on a graph , it is very easy to show it on a histogram.
$\therefore $ Another merit is that it also can be graphically represented.
$\therefore $ The two merits of the mode are:
1. Mode is very simple and popular.
2. Mode can be graphically represented.

Note: Note that not only these two merits of mode, but there are many other merits/ benefits of mode which can further be presented. Students should know the difference between mean, median and mode.
