Stem and Leaf Plots OBJ: To display a set of data using a stem-and-leaf plot and to find the mean, median, and mode
Shown below are the mathematics scores for the 50 seniors in a Midwestern high school who took a standardized achievement test
In a stem-and-leaf plot the first digit of each score is called the stem and the second digit is called the leaf. All the leaves for a given stem are written one after the other. Make a stem-and-leaf plot to the right with the scores recorded by column.
Unorganized Stem and Leaf
Stem Leaf
Make a second stem-and-leaf plot to the right with the scores rearranged in increasing order.
Stem Leaves 3|2 represents a score of
DEF: mean The sum of the data divided by the total number of data items (average) 27,
DEF: median The middle number of the data when it is arranged in numerical order, or the average of the two middle numbers if there is an even number of data items
DEF: mode Data item that occurs the most 510
