    Answer: c. The mean is much larger than the median

    Step-by-step explanation:

    A dataset is skewed to the right when the peak of the dataset is located in the left (left of the mean), and it has a long right tail. It is also call positive skewed distribution. One of the characteristics of right skewed dataset is that the mean of the dataset is always greater/larger than the median and mode.

    Therefore, for the case above if the mean is much larger than the median, it indicates that the dataset is skewed to the right.
