      Question

      For a dataset, if the mean is 100 and the median is 90,

      the distribution is most likely:
      A Symmetrical Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B Positively skewed Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C Negatively skewed Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D Leptokurtic Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      E Uniform Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      In a positively skewed distribution, the mean is pulled in the direction of the long tail (towards higher values), so the mean is typically greater than the median. Here, Mean (100) > Median (90), indicating positive skew.
