Quick Data Displays Review Circle Graph: Shows data as parts of a whole. The percents add up to 100. Histogram: Similar to a bar graph, and is used to display numerical data that have been organized into equal intervals. Stem-and-Leaf Plot: Data is organized from least to greatest. Digits of the least place value are usually the leaves, and the next place value digits are the stems.
