Key idea: Mode for grouped data

**Modal class**: class with HIGHEST frequency.

**Mode formula**:
**Mode = ₁ − ₀) / ₁ − ₀ − ₂)**

Where:
- = lower limit of modal class
- = class width
- ₁ = frequency of modal class
- ₀ = frequency of class BEFORE modal class
- ₂ = frequency of class AFTER modal class

**Example**: Modal class 30–40 with ₁ = 12, ₀ = 5, ₂ = 8. .
Mode = ≈ 36.36.
