Question

What is skewness in statistics Slideshare?

Answer 1

Answer:

A distribution is said to be 'skewed' when the mean and the median fall at different points in the distribution, and the balance (or centre of gravity) is shifted to one side or the other-to left or right. Measures of skewness tell us the direction and the extent of Skewness. In symmetrical distribution the mean, median and mode are identical. The more the mean moves away from the mode, the larger the asymmetry or skewness
