Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Right now, the mean is 6.4 and the median is 6. If you take away 6, the mean would be 6.5 and the median will stay the same. The median will stay the same because when there is no middle number, you add the two closest numbers and divide by two.

Hope it helped:)
