Bob's formula...

=INDEX(C1:C57,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(C1:C57,C1:C57)),CO UNTIF(C1:C57,C1:C57),0)
)

....confirmed with CONTROL+SHIFT+ENTER.

Raymund's formula...

=MODE(C1:C57)

....confirmed with just ENTER.

Note that MODE will return #N/A when no number occurs more than once.
Also, what if there's more than one number occurring most often?

=INDEX(rng,MATCH(MAX(COUNTIF(rng,rng)),COUNTIF(rng ,rng),0))

which is an array formula, it should be committed with Ctrl-Shift-Enter, not
just Enter.
