Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
The required stem-and-leaf table for the given data is:
1Step-1. Apply the concept of step and leaf plot.
A Stem and Leaf Plot is a special table where each data value is split into a "stem" (the first digit or digits) and a "leaf" (usually the last digit).
2Step-2. Analyze the data.
Given data:
42, 50, 38, 59, 50, 44, 46, 62, 47, 35, 55, and 56.
Arrange the data in ascending order:
35,38,42,44,46,47,50,50,55,56,59,62
The greatest place value is tenth.
So, number 35 will have stem 3 and leaf 5.
Similarly, applies to all the numbers.
3Step-3. Draw the stem and leaf plot.
