The mode is the number that occurs the most so if you look at the numbers, thee only one that occurs twice is 5 so 5 is the mode.
This is a classic math problem, and it is not solved in a normal way.
<span>1+4=5
2+5=12
3+6=21
8+11=?
There is a pattern that can be spotted. 2+5 does not equal twelve, however 2*(2+5) does equal 12. Below is how to solve the rest of the equations:
</span>1+4=5 -> 1*(4+1)=5
2+5=12 -> 2*(5+1)=12
3+6=21 -> <span>3*(6+1)=21 </span>
8+11=? -> <span>8*(11+1)=96
</span>
This is one way to answer the problem, HOWEVER there is another way to answer the problem that gives the SAME answer, but many people mistakenly believes it gives a different answer. If anyone tries to post the other way of doing this problem, but tells you the answer is 40, please comment on this post or message me and let me know. I will explain why the answer is actually 96 either way.
Distribute the negative:
6x-3-8x-11
Combine like terms:
-2x-14
Simplify by factoring:
-2(x+7)
The answer would be 54 students liked dogs the best.
How you do this is you go from left to right with each one, and figure out which number is greater. For this particular problem the answer will be,
1.2 1.23 2.31 3.2
