Stem and leaf plots are usually done when we are trying to group together a lot of data in a small table. The stems are the numbers in the left column and the leaves are the numbers on the right, each one representing one variable. The plot above is heights taken from a group of adults and n=200 which means that you add 200 to the number in the stem and then put a decimal and then the number in the leaf. This will give you the height in inches of each adult. These plots help to find means, minimums, and maximums for data.
