Answer 1

To find the mode of the given data, we need to identify the number that appears most frequently in the list of average days of rain for each month.

The data provided is as follows:

• Jan: 6
• Feb: 7
• Mar: 10
• Apr: 10
• May: 11
• Jun: 12
• Jul: 10
• Aug: 10
• Sep: 9
• Oct: 7
• Nov: 7
• Dec: 6

Now, let's list the frequency of each number:

• 6: 2 times (Jan, Dec)
• 7: 3 times (Feb, Oct, Nov)
• 9: 1 time (Sep)
• 10: 4 times (Mar, Apr, Jul, Aug)
• 11: 1 time (May)
• 12: 1 time (Jun)

The mode is the number that appears most frequently, which in this case is 10, as it occurs 4 times.

Therefore, the mode of the given data is 10.
