Chapter SH, Problem 16.3E

To determine

Draw a stem- and-leaf plot for given set of data.

Explanation of Solution

Given:

The given set of data is

  $785,776,788,761,768,768,785$

Calculation:

Stem- and-leaf plot $\to$ it is a table in which each data value is split into a stem (the first digit(s)) and a leaf (the last digit).

Rearrange the set of data.

  $761,768,768,776,785,785,788$

Hence the stem- and-leaf plot for given set of data is given below.

Stem	Leaf
$\begin{array}{l}76\\ 77\\ 78\end{array}$	$\begin{array}{l}188\\ 6\\ 558\end{array}$
