Given, 13, 16, 12, 14, 19, 12, 14, 13, 14

Arranging in ascending order = 12, 12, 13, 13, 14, 14, 14, 16, 19

We know,

The mode is observation which occurs a maximum number of times.

Median is the middle observation when that data is arranged in ascending or descending order.

Now,

Clearly, 14 occurs thrice. So, 14 is the mode of the data.

Now, there are 9 values, so the median is the \frac{9+1}{2} = 5^{th}\ term

Hence, 14 is the median value.
