The regional manager of a chain of department stores created the following stem-and-leaf plot showing the number of pairs of boots at each of the stores:

I 0 I
I 1 I 7 8
I 2 I 0 5 8
I 3 I 4 4 7 8
I 4 I 0
I 5 I
I 6 I

Key: 1 I 7 = 17 pairs of boots

How many department stores have more than 60 pairs of boots?

Can someone help me? I don't even know what a stem and leaf plot is!

And it's hard to believe that this problem was assigned if you haven't yet covered the topic ...
17
The answer is 0. I was confused at first when it said that 7=17 and I thought that I had to do some weird subtracting and stuff to get what 4 was and the rest but apparently you only use 7 as 17 then just add the other numbers to 17 lol I don't know if that made any sense but yeaaa
40
the answer is 10
da answer is 0
40
yeah its 40 doing Kahn Academy and it said 40 was right
40 is right thxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The answer is 10 because The left column of the stem and leaf plot represents the tens place; each number on the right side represents the ones place for the number of pairs of boots at a department store.

We can combine the tens and ones places and write out the number of pairs of boots at each department store on the right:

Now we know the number of pairs of boots at the different department stores:
17, 181, 20, 25, 28, 34, 34, 37, 38, and 40

There are 10 department stores that match our question.
The answer is actually 10 I had got it wrong and revealed is was 10!!!!
it's actually 6 lol got 10 and 40 wrong on Khan Academy
the answer is 0, which is very confusing but the answer correct is 0
