Q18 of 141 Page 8

If the mode of the data: 64, 60, 48, x, 43, 48, 43, 34 is 43, then x + 3 =

As we know, mode of any data is the observation which occurs most.


In this case, 48 occurs two times and 43 is the mode of data


Therefore, 43 should occur more than two times.


And this is possible if and only if


x = 43


⇒ x + 3 = 43 + 3 = 46


Hence, correct option is (C).
