- Karl Pearson developed a measure that describes the skewness of a distribution, called the coefficient of skewness. The formula is Skewness = 3 (mean-median)/standard deviation. The value of this measure generally lies between -3 and +3. The closer the value lies to -3, the more the distribution is skewed left. The closer the value lies to +3, the more the distribution is skewed right. A value close to 0 indicates a symmetric distribution. Find the coefficient of skewness of the following distributions and comment on the skewness. Mean = 100, median = 100, standard deviation = 15arrow_forwardA successful basketball player has a height of 6 feet 11 inches, or 211 cm.
