Since the 36 is farther from the median compared to 20, why isn’t the mean skewed to the right?
The answer to this is D but I thought it’d be B.
As a follow-up, in which types of questions does the distribution pull the mean?
Because you can’t read off the mean from a box plot. Since this is a right skewed box plot, a likely thing you can say is that the mean lies between the median and upper quartile.

Right, but thats exactly what the question asked, if the mean is greater or less than the median
“likely”, also i meant inclusive.
