FAQs

What is a stem-and-leaf plot?

A stem-and-leaf plot is a statistical tool used to organize numerical data into categories, where the leading digits (stems) represent the intervals and the trailing digits (leaves) represent individual data points.

How do you determine the stem and leaf for a three-digit number like 182?

In a three-digit stem-and-leaf plot, the first two digits (18) typically serve as the stem, and the final digit (2) serves as the leaf.

What is the purpose of the 'Key' in these plots?

The key provides a specific example of how to read the plot, explaining exactly what a stem value paired with a leaf value represents in the context of the data.
