To make the stem and leaf plot of the data we could begin placing them in order:
4.854
5.064
5.251
5.415
5.598
6.559
7.259
7.273
7.289
7.531
7.567
8.198
8.505
8.674
9.735
9.922
10.122
Then we can group them. Numbers are from 4 to 10. We need to 'round' the last 3 digits of each data to 1 digit to create the 'leafs'. Each leaf will be separated by a space.
This will be the stem.
4 |
5 |
6 |
7 |
8 |
9 |
10 |
Then, we place the leafs:
4 | 9 (First item of the sorted list above)
5 | 1 3 4 6 (Items 2 to 5 of the list above)
6 | 6 (6th item)
7 | 3 3 3 5 6 (Items 7 to 11)
8 | 2 5 7 (Items 12 to 14)
9 | 7 9 (15 and 16)
10 | 1 (17)
Then, the Stem and Leaf plot corresponding to the data will be the option C)
