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

D) None of these

Correct Answer:
C) (c) and (d)

Description for Correct answer:
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
