Learning Objective(s):
At the end of the lesson, the student
shall be able to understand the
difference between ungrouped and
grouped FDT: to create a stem-leaf
plot for both data.
STEM-LEAF PLOT
A stem and leaf is a table used
to display data. The 'stem' is on
the left displays the first digit or
digits. The 'leaf' is on the right and
displays the last digit.
Example:
The following are the scores of 30 college
students in a statistics test:
75 52 80 96 65 79 71 87 93 95
69 72 81 61 76 86 79 68 50 92
83 84 77 64 71 87 72 92 57 98

Example:
The following data are monthly rents paid by a
sample of 30 households selected from a small
city.

that 25 students spent working on computers during the last month.

Grouped Data Vs Ungrouped Data
Data Frequency
Data Frequency
Grouped data - Data that has 2–4 5
a frequency distribution). 11 – 13 8
14 – 16 4
17 – 19 3
Creating a Categorical Ungrouped
Frequency Distribution
Step 1: Make a table with the following columns in order:
class, tally, and frequency
Step 2: Tally (TOTAL) the data and place the results in the
tally column.
• When the range of the data is large, the data must be grouped
into classes
