Notice The mean is always pulled the farthest into the tail. The median is always in the middle – located between the mean and the mode. The mode is always at the highest point – the data that is MOST represented.

For each grouping, identify as Normal, Positively Skewed, or Negatively Skewed. Then, mark on each drawing the approximate locations of the mean, median, and mode.
