Problem
Here is a set of data. $\begin{array}{lllll}16 & 46 & 21 & 5 & 3\end{array}$ $\begin{array}{lllll}3 & 3 & 16 & 18 & 46\end{array}$ $46 \quad 46$ Find the mode of the data.
Solution
Step 1 ：Combine the two sets of data into one list: \(\{16, 46, 21, 5, 3, 3, 3, 16, 18, 46, 46, 46\}\)
Step 2 ：Find the number that appears most frequently in the dataset: \(\boxed{46}\)
