Question

4 in a typical stem - and - leaf plot, what is found in the right column?

• tens value of a number
• average of the data
• frequency or number scores
• ones value of a number

skip 3 to complete

Explanation:

In a typical stem - and - leaf plot, the stem column holds the "tens value of a number" (or the higher - order place values), and the leaf column holds the ones (or lower - order) values. The average of the data is not what's in the stem column. Frequency (number of scores) is related to how often a particular stem - leaf combination occurs, not what's in the stem column. The ones value of a number is in the leaf column, not the stem. So the correct option is "Tens value of a number".

Answer:

A. Tens value of a number (assuming the first option is labeled A, as per typical multiple - choice formatting for such questions)
