    Finding the most common combination with three fields

    I have a spreadsheet that includes all orders from 2018 with columns of thickness, width, and length. I need to determine the most common combination of thickness, width, and length ie (0.5, 60, 480) is the most common item in the list.

    Spreadsheet attached.

    Thanks in advance

    See attached.

    Concatenate the three fields, remove the duplicates and then count the number of occurences.
    .1875 84 602 with five occurences is the most common
