Why could the mean of the data set below be misleading? ages of teachers: 29, 38, 39, 26, 29, 29, 39, 77, 38, 29

OpenStudy (anonymous):

the 77's a problem

OpenStudy (goho2838):

So basically the 77 is out of the normal data set or an"outlier" making the regular numbers mean inaccurate right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes
