Development:

Supposing that the students of the class have a good mathematics level, a possible list of grades would be:

$5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9$

The table of absolute frequencies will be the following one.

Mark	absolute frequency
0	0
1	0
2	0
3	0
4	0
5	3
6	4
7	2
8	1
9	5
10	0

The mode is $9$ .

Solution:

$5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 6, 6, 7, 7, 8, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9$
