Stem and Leaf Plot- a graph used to organize and display data so that frequency can be compared.
A stem and leaf plot organizes data with the largest place value in the "stem" position and the smaller place values in the "leaf" position. It is useful for comparing a set of data to see frequencies and outliers. This graph shows the heights of 218 volcanoes, with the unit being 100 feet. The majority of the volcanoes mapped are between 2,000 and 8,000 feet high, and the fewest mapped are around 14,000 feet and 18,000 feet high.
