Stem and Leaf Plot Map



A Stem and Leaf Plot is a type of graph similar to a histogram but shows more information. The Stem-and-Leaf Plot summarizes the distribution of data and provides extra detail regarding individual values. The data is arranged by place value. The digits in the largest place is referred to as the stem and the digits in the smallest place are referred to as the leaf. The leaves are always displayed to the left of the stem. This map is evident of a stem and leaf plot in that it has all its stems listed on the left and leaves listed on the right.
