उत्तर
Mean and mode
Explanation:
Mean is defined as follows:
Mean = `"Sum of all the observations"/"Number of observations"`
So, if we remove the extreme values that both sum and total number of observations will change. Hence, the mean will also change.
Mode is that observation which occurs the most. So, if the extreme value of those values which occurs mostly than mode can affect it they are removed.
Median is the mid-value. So, if extreme values are removed then the mid-value remains the same. Hence, the median will not change.
