Answer 1

To find the mode of the data set, we need to determine which number of pieces of pizza was eaten most frequently by the surveyed individuals.

The data provided is: 6, 2, 1, 2, 4, 5, 2, 2, 4, 6, 7.

Now, let’s count the occurrences of each number:

• 1: 1 occurrence
• 2: 4 occurrences
• 4: 2 occurrences
• 5: 1 occurrence
• 6: 2 occurrences
• 7: 1 occurrence

From this count, we see that the number 2 appears the most frequently (4 times) compared to other numbers.

Thus, the mode for the number of pieces of pizza eaten is 2.
