Stem and Leaf Plot




A stem and leaf plot is a way to distribute data with part of the data on the left, or the "stem," and half on the right, as the "leaf". It is a way to put data together and show the distribution of values. For example if you were making a plot of the ages of people in a group, you could you this, and if this above stem and leaf plot were ages, the most people would be in their forties, and the least in their 60's and teens.
