1. Objective: Learn to Display and Analyze Stem-and-leaf diagrams.

2. A Stem and Leaf Diagram shows how often numbers occur (repeat) and how they are distributed.
A stem and Leaf shows data horizontally.
The numbers are split into a stem and a leaf.
A number of 1-digit has a stem of 0, and the number is placed in the leaf.
For a number of 2-digits, the tens digit is the stem and the ones digit is the leaf.
For a 3-digit number, the first two digits make up the stem, and the third digit (ones place) makes up the leaf.

3. Example with steps: Construct a Stem-and-Leaf Diagram
