1 answer

To interpret the stem and leaf plot you've provided, let's break it down:

  • The stem represents the whole number part, and the leaf represents the decimal part.
  • Each entry in the leaf corresponds to a decimal value.

Given your stem and leaf plot:

  • 1 | 6 5 5 means 1.6, 1.5, 1.5
  • 2 | 1 1 1 means 2.1, 2.1, 2.1
  • 3 | 6 5 means 3.6, 3.5

So, the complete data set can be represented as follows:

  • 1.5, 1.5, 1.6 (from the stem 1)
  • 2.1, 2.1, 2.1 (from the stem 2)
  • 3.5, 3.6 (from the stem 3)

Combined data set: 1.5, 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, 2.1, 2.1, 3.5, 3.6

In summary, the corresponding set of data for the given stem and leaf plot is 1.5, 1.5, 1.6, 2.1, 2.1, 2.1, 3.5, 3.6.
