Answer:

The outliers are 242 and 875

Step-by-step explanation:

Their numbers are far more away than the other numbers if you had it on a number line. Most of the numbers range from 480-510 (estimation of the range, sorry hehe), so the numbers that seem very far (almost excluded, I guess) would be the ones that are considered the outliers.

242 and 875 are over 100 spaces away from the other numbers, meanwhile 485,485,489,497,498,500,507,509 have shorter spaces in between.

I hope this helped! (Sorry, if it sounds confusing)
