Q. As part of a research experiment, a chemist is weighing 66 samples. The weights are: 2.3ounces2.3\,\text{ounces}, 2.4ounces2.4\,\text{ounces}, 2.4ounces2.4\,\text{ounces}, 1.9ounces1.9\,\text{ounces}, 2.4ounces2.4\,\text{ounces}, 4.1ounces4.1\,\text{ounces} What is the mode of the weights?\newline____ounces\_\_\_\_\,\text{ounces}
  1. List Weights: Step 11: 2.32.3, 2.42.4, 2.42.4, 1.91.9, 2.42.4, 4.14.1\newlineFirst, list out all the weights given in the problem.
  2. Arrange in Order: Step 22: 1.91.9, 2.32.3, 2.42.4, 2.42.4, 2.42.4, 4.14.1\newlineArrange the weights in ascending order to make it easier to find the mode.
  3. Identify Mode: Step 33: 1.91.9, 2.32.3, 2.42.4, 2.42.4, 2.42.4, 4.14.1\newlineIdentify the mode, which is the number that appears most frequently in the set. Here, 2.42.4 ounces appears three times, which is more than any other number.
