14. Mode and Median Mode is the number that occurs most often in a data set. Mode is the number that occurs most often in a data set.  Some data sets have don't have a mode; others have more than one mode.  The mode for the amount of money students spent is $4. The median is the middle number in a data set that is ordered from least to greatest. When there are two middle numbers, the median is the mean of these two numbers. The median is the middle number in a data set that is ordered from least to greatest. When there are two middle numbers, the median is the mean of these two numbers.  $1 $1 $2 $3 $4 $4 $4 $5  $1 $1 $2 $3 $4 $4 $4 $5  $3 + $4 = $7 $7 ÷ 2 = $3.50 $7 ÷ 2 = $3.50  The median for the amount of money students spent is $3.50.

15. Range Range is the difference between the greatest and least number in a data set. Range is the difference between the greatest and least number in a data set. The range for the amount of money students spent on snacks is $5 – $1, or $4. The range for the amount of money students spent on snacks is $5 – $1, or $4.
