Can I have another Stem and Leaf Plot example to get ready for the Module 3 Homework Assignment?

 

ANSWER: Sure!

 

Let’s make a stem and leaf plot of the following Arithmancy test scores:

56, 65, 82, 64, 71, 78, 77, 86, 59, 69, 70, 80, 76, 82, 85, 109, 73

 

Our first step will be to rearrange the scores in ascending order:

56, 59, 64, 65, 69, 70, 71, 73, 76, 77, 78, 80, 82, 82, 85, 86, 109

 

We can now see the min is 56 and the max is 109 so our stems will go from 5 to 10:

Stem |

 5 |

 6 |

 7 |

 8 |

 9 |

10 |

 

We now add each leaf!

Stem | Leaf

  5 |  6 9

  6 |  4 5 9

   7 |  0 1 3 6 7 8

   8 |  0 2 2 5 6

  9 |

10 | 9

 

Bonus: Which score probably belongs to Hermione? (Extremely intelligent witch and would most likely be the outlier on a difficult exam.)

 

Hermione most likely got the 109!
