The original set is L1 = {23,34,55,77,56,34,55,80,23}
Sort the values from smallest to largest to get L2 = {23, 23, 34, 34, 55, 55, 56, 77, 80}

Let's make a frequency table for all the values
ValueFrequency
232
342
552
561
771
801


The largest frequency is 2 and it happens for the values 23, 34 and 55. Therefore the mode is the set {23, 34, 55}

Note: it is possible to have more than one mode which is why I used curly braces to indicate set notation.
