Final Answer
The mode for this list of numbers is a) 71.
Explanation:
To find the mode, we first identify the frequency of each number in the given list.
1. We start by organizing the numbers and their frequencies:
- 35: 1
- 45: 1
- 47: 1
- 53: 1
- 60: 1
- 62: 1
- 63: 1
- 71: 2
- 73: 1
- 78: 1
- 82: 1
- 83: 1
- 84: 1
- 88: 1
2. By examining the frequencies, we see that 71 appears twice, more than any other number.
3. Since 71 occurs with the highest frequency, it is the mode of the given list.
Therefore, the correct option is a) 71, as it represents the mode of the given list of numbers.
