What is the maximum data entry? (Stem-and-Leaf Dis play)

key 3/8 = 38

Solution

Maximum data entry is the largest observation in the given data.

For example we have to obtain stem and leaf plot of the following data :

56, 65, 98, 82, 64, 71, 78, 77, 86, 95, 91, 59, 69, 70, 80, 92, 76, 82, 85, 91, 92, 99, 73

Then first arrange observations in ascending order :

56, 59, 64, 65, 69, 70, 71, 73, 76, 77, 78, 80, 82, 82, 85, 86, 91, 91, 92, 92, 95, 98, 99

Here minimum data entry is 56 and maximum data entry is 99.

And stem and leaf plot of the data is :
