When the outlier is removed The mean would increase.

Step-by-step explanation:

Removing outliers can affect mean more than median. Because outlier removal sometimes affect the median but in a small percentage or sometimes it will remain the same.

Let us prove, consider 16 values one with 78 and other 15 with values nearly 85, 84 that will give the mean value as 84.

78, 84, 82, 86, 84, 85, 83, 86, 82, 85, 84, 83, 86, 85, 86, 85.

Mean = $\frac{Sum of the values}{Number of values}$ .
