Answer 1

send the sorted array in as a parameter.
2 variables. one for the longest count.
one for the current count
both start at 0
start at index 0 and walk until size-1, for last index
make current increase as long as index x+1 is the same as x.
if the current count ever exceeds the longest count, After the indexes are different numbers, re assign the length.
you could also keep a variable for number or first index of the longest. as a reference.

hope this helps!!
