# Which of the following sets of data has equal median and mode a) 1, 5, 7, 7, 7, 8, 10b) 1, 3, 5, 7, 9, 5c) 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 8d) 1, 2, 3, 7, 8, 8, 10

 A) (c) B) (a) C) (c) and (d) D) None of these

 C) (c) and (d)

Set A

Median = 7; Mode = 7

Set B

Median: $$\Large \frac{5+7}{2}$$ ; Mode = 5

Set C

2, 4, 6, 8, 8, 10

Median = $$\Large \frac{6+8}{2}=\frac{14}{2}$$ = 7, Mode = 8

Set D

Median = 7, Mode=8

Set C and D have equal median and mode.
