Stem and Leaf Plots


Stem and leaf plots are an efficient way to display data. If you were to imagine that 10 people sitting around a table at a family reunion. Their ages are 32, 1, 45, 37, 8, 9, 55, 81, 34, and 51. You might make a stem and leaf plot using the tens digits from their ages as the "stem" and the ones digits as the "leaves." The plot would look like the picture that is found here.
