5. THE MODE - If a data set has only one value that occurs with greatest frequency is said to be UNIMODAL -If a data set has two values that occur with the same greatest frequency is said to be BIMODAL -If a data set has more than two values that occur with the same greatest frequency, each value is used as the mode, and the data set is said to be MULTIMODAL -When no data value occurs more than once, the data set is said to have NO MODE

10. Properties of the Mean 1- The Mean can be calculated for any set of NUMERICAL Data 2- The Mean is unique and unambiguous value. 3- The means of several sets of data can always be combined into the overall mean of all the data. 4- If each value in a sample were replaced by the mean, then ∑X would remain unchanged 5- The mean takes into account the value of each item in a set of data. 6- The mean is relatively reliable in the sense that means of many samples drawn from the same population generally do not fluctuate, or vary, as widely as other statistics used to estimate the mean of a population.

11. Properties of the Median In addition to the properties of the Mean; 1- It splits the data into two parts 2- The median is preferable to the mean because it is not so easily affected by extreme values.
