The mode is the most frequent value and the only measure of central tendency that works for categorical data (colors, brands, survey responses).
Unlike the mean, the mode is completely unaffected by extreme outliers, making it reliable when a few very large or small values would skew the average.
The empirical rule for skewed distributions predicts mode ≈ 3 × median - 2 × mean = 6.25, close to the actual mode of 7, suggesting mild skew.
