In this PS, the best way is to go by the 'Trial & Error' method.
Remember, there will only be one correct answer, so if you get the answer, don't waste time in calculating other options.

Option A = 2
2x = 2(2) = 4
x+5 = 2+5 = 7
3x-2 = 3(2)-2 = 4
5x-7 = 5(2)-7 = 3
4x = 4(2) = 8

The mode is clearly 4, so mark 'A' and move ahead.
