Skewed to the right refers to a distribution of data where the tail on the right side is longer or fatter than the left side. This means that most of the values are concentrated on the left side of the distribution, with fewer larger values stretching out toward the right. When comparing distributions of a quantitative variable, recognizing right skewness is crucial as it affects measures like the mean and median, and helps in understanding how data behaves, particularly when it comes to outliers and variability.
