It depends on how many points you have, if you have 6 or 7 then only one outlier is really possible but if you have done 20 points the 2 outliers could be acceptable, but should still be avoided.

Yes, a data set can have more than one outlier. An outlier is a data point that significantly differs from the rest of the data. The presence of multiple outliers can impact the overall distribution and analysis of the data.

How does the outlier affect the mean of the data?

An outlier does affect the mean of the data. How it's affected depends on how many data points there are, how far from the data the outlier is, whether it is greater than the mean (increases mean) or less than the mean (decreases the mean).

An outlier.


Outlier is unusually small or large data value?

An outlier can be very large or small. its usally 1.5 times the mean. they can be seen with a cat and whisker box * * * * * The answer to the question is YES. "Its usually 1.5 times the mean" is utter rubbish - apart from the typo. If a distribution had a mean of zero, such as the standard Normal distribution, then almost every observation would be greater than 1.5 times the mean = 0 and so almost every observation would be an outlier! No. There is no universally agreed definition for an outlier but one contender is values that are more than 1.5 times the interquartile range away from the median.
