This set has 3 modes: 0, 2 and 3. See explanation.

Explanation:

A mode of a data set is the value which occurs most often in the set.

A set can have no mode if all the values occur the same number of times, but it can also have more than one mode if there are several values with the same number of occurances but there are also the values with lower number of occurences.

In this set we have:

  • 2 values with 1 occurence: 1 and 4

  • 3 values with 2 occurences: 0, 2 and 3

So we can write that all values mentioned in point 2 are modes of the set.

Finally we can write:

Answer: This set has 3 modes: 0, 2 and 3.
