Outlier - A value that "lies outside" than most of the other values.

The outlier is therefore 12, because it is not in the general range of values, which is on average around 29.

Answer:

The outlier of the set is 12.

Explanation:

Consider the provided set of data:

4, 37, 33, 31, 28, 25, 33, 12

The outlier is a kind of data which is abnormal distance from the other points.

Or the data that lies outside the other value in the provided set.

Now consider the data.

12 is lies outside the other values because the distance is abnormal.

The number 12 is not close to any of the other numbers.

Hence, the outlier of the set is 12.
