First, draw a distributon with a positive skew such as the distribution shown below. The mean, median, and mode will not be equal for a skewed distribution. Note which statistic is highest and which is lowest. Which one is the point where the distribution is balanced?

Now draw a distributon with a negative skew.

Compare the statistics for this distributon, and see which one corresponds to the balance point.

Experiment with different distributions and see if you have discovered a rule for the balance point that holds for all distributions you try.
