You really want to calculate the "mode" of a variable?
In this case I'd expect only one parameter, as the mode is the value that appears most often in a set of data values.

But there are two parameters. Therefore I could imagine you want to calculate "modulo".
Well, it is not implemented in LimeSurvey. But you can use the floor(x,y) function

Not because they are worthless, but because they are priceless
