Given the data set , which of the following quantities are equal to each other/one another?
I: The mean
II: The median
III: The mode
The median of a data set with an odd number of elements is the middle value when the set is arranged in ascending order; the middle value of this nine-element set is the fifth value, 5.
The mode of a data set is the most frequently occurring element. Here, only 5 appears multiple times, so it is the mode.
The mean of a data set is the sum of its elements divided by the number of elements, which here is 9:

The mean and the mode are equal, but the mean is different. The correct answer is "II and III only".

How many modes does this data set:

How many modes does this data set:
The mode of a data set is the element that occurs most frequently. If there is a tie between the frequencies of two (three, etc.) elements, the set has two (three, etc.) modes.
Here, though, only one element (8) appears four times, with no other element appearing more frequently. 8 is the only mode.

Since this data set is arranged in ascending order and has an even number of elements, the median of the data set is the arithmetic mean of its middle two elements. Both elements are 6, so this is the median.
6 is the mode, since it occurs most frequently.
The mean is the sum of the elements divided by the number of elements, which is 8:

The median and the mode are equal to each other, but not to the mean, so the correct answer is "II and III only".

The mode of the data set is the most frequently occurring element. In the set given, 4 occurs three times, 5 occurs three times, 6 occurs two times, and 3 and 7 occur one time each.
If 4 is added to the data set, then it occurs four times, more than any other element, so it becomes the unique mode; a similar argument holds for 5. If 6 is added to the set, then each of 4, 5, and 6 occur three times, and the set becomes one with three modes.
The correct answer is therefore I and II only.

The mode of the data set is the most frequently occurring element. In the set given, 4 occurs three times, 5 occurs three times, 6 occurs two times, and 3 and 7 occur one time each. Therefore, the set has two modes, 4 and 5, and we want to preserve this condition.
If 3 is added to this set, it becomes

and 4 and 5 are still tied for the most frequently occurring element. The same happens if 7 is added to yield
.
If 5 is added to this set, it becomes

and 5 appears more frequently than 4 or any other element. This changes the data set to one with only one mode, 5.
