Question
The following table shows the ages for a group of children in a youth futbol club. Calculate a typical child's age by finding the mode of the data. Child number Age (years) 1 10 2 8 3 9 4 8 5 8 6 8 7 9 8 10 9 8 10 8
Solution
To calculate the mode, which is the most frequently occurring number in a set of data, we need to count how many times each age appears in the data set.
From the data, we can see that:
- Age 8 appears 6 times
- Age 9 appears 2 times
- Age 10 appears 2 times
Therefore, the mode of the data, or the most typical age of a child in the youth football club, is 8 years old.
