What can skew the mean?



What can skew the mean?..

Answer / Suresh Kumar Yadav

Skew in data distribution can affect the mean value. Skewness occurs when data is not evenly distributed along a normal curve. If the tail of the distribution extends to one side more than the other, it can cause the mean to be influenced significantly by extreme values (outliers), making it less representative of the central tendency.
