Step-by-step explanation:

The exact question is as follows :

Given - The dot plots compare the number of raffle tickets sold by boys and girls during a school fund-raiser.

To find - Which plot has an outlier?

Proof -

The correct answer is - Girls

Reason -

Girls plot has an outlier because values way outside the majority of the data.

Definition of outlier -

A value that "lies outside" (is much smaller or larger than) most of the other values in a set of data.

But in Boy's plot all the dots are close to each other , no dot is lies outside to any other dots.

So,

The correct option is -

Girl's plot has an outlier.
