Answer: Mode ≈ 397.06 gram The highest frequency is 60, so the modal class is 250–500. L = 250 , f₁ = 60 , f₀ = 10 , f₂ = 25 , h = 250 Mode = L + [f₁ - f₀/2f₁ - f₀ - f₂] × h = 250 + 60 - 10/120 - 10 - 25 × 250 = 250 + 50/85 × 250 ≈ 397.06

Answer: Mode ≈ 397.06 gram

The highest frequency is 60, so the modal class is 250–500.

\(L = 250\), \(f_1 = 60\), \(f_0 = 10\), \(f_2 = 25\), \(h = 250\)

\[ \text{Mode} = L + \left[\frac{f_1 - f_0}{2f_1 - f_0 - f_2}\right] \times h \]

\[ = 250 + \frac{60 - 10}{120 - 10 - 25} \times 250 \]

\[ = 250 + \frac{50}{85} \times 250 \approx 397.06 \]
