Stem and Leaf Plot

Like the last two graphs posted, a stem and leaf plot is another form of frequency distribution. This is a distribution of adult heights that was taken from a sample. The column on the left is the height in inches and the columns to the right are the height in .1 inches. For example. Out of the entire sample taken there are three individuals who are 68.6 inches because there are three sixes on that row. This graph and more can be found at  the University of Mississippi website.
