To construct a stem-and-leaf plot for the given data, follow these steps:
Step 1: Separate the data into stems and leaves.
- The stem is typically the tens digit of the data value.
- The leaf is the ones digit of the data value.
Step 2: Arrange the stems in ascending order.
Step 3: Write down the leaves corresponding to each stem.
Here is the stem-and-leaf plot for the given data:
