Chen has a part-time job at a bakery. The table below shows his daily earnings.Which stem-and-leaf plot correctly represents the data in the table?
In the steam and leaf plot, the steam represents the tens and the units, and the leaf represents the tenths of each daily earning.
Then, to represent $37.30 we have to write 37 on the steam column and 3 on the leaf column, that is, the key is 37 | 3 = $37.30
Applying this rule to the values of the table, we get:
Steam | Leaf
37 | 3
38 | 1 1 3
39 | 0 8
40 |
41 | 7 8
42 | 5 5
