Question 1018713: Is it possible to determine the mode of a data set using a histogram? Explain.
Answer by Edwin McCravy(20060) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!

Yes, if there is a longest bar and it has a single number 
underneath it, that single number will be the mode.

[If there is a longest bar and it has a range of numbers 
under it, then that range of numbers will be the modal class.]
