How to find Karl Pearson's Coefficient of Skewness?

Question:

Find Karl Pearson's Coefficient of Skewness when Standard Deviation = 20, Mean = 100 and Mode = 80.


Solution:

Step 1: Find Karl Pearson's Coefficient of Skweness

Sₖₚ = [Mean - Mode] / Standard Deviation

∴ Sₖₚ = [100 - 80] / 20

∴ Sₖₚ = 20 / 20

∴ Sₖₚ = 1


Answer:

Karl Pearson's Coefficient of Skewness when Standard Deviation = 20, Mean = 100 and Mode = 80 is 1.
