2. Presentation of Data
Objectives: At the end of the lesson,
the students should be able to:
1. Prepare a stem-and-leaf plot
2. Describe data in textual form
3. Construct frequency distribution table
4. Create graphs
5. Read and interpret graphs and tables
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
3. Ungrouped vs. Grouped Data
Data can be classified as grouped or
ungrouped.
Ungrouped data are data that are not
organized, or if arranged, could only be
from highest to lowest or lowest to
highest.
Grouped data are data that are
organized and arranged into different
classes or categories.

5. Textual Presentation of Data
Data can be presented using
paragraphs or sentences. It involves
enumerating important characteristics,
emphasizing significant figures and
identifying important features of data.
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
6. Textual Presentation of Data
Example. You are asked to present the
performance of your section in the
Statistics test. The following are the
test scores of your class:
34 42 20 50 17 9 34 43
50 18 35 43 50 23 23 35
37 38 38 39 39 38 38 39
24 29 25 26 28 27 44 44
49 48 46 45 45 46 45 46
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
7. Solution
First, arrange the data in order for you to
identify the important characteristics. This
can be done in two ways: rearranging from
lowest to highest or using the stem-and-leaf
plot.
Below is the rearrangement of data from lowest
to highest:
9 23 28 35 38 43 45 48
17 24 29 37 39 43 45 49
18 25 34 38 39 44 46 50
20 26 34 38 39 44 46 50
23 27 35 38 42 45 46 50
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
8. With the rearranged data, pertinent data
worth mentioning can be easily
recognized. The following is one way
of presenting data in textual form.
In the Statistics class of 40 students, 3 obtained
the perfect score of 50. Sixteen students got a score
of 40 and above, while only 3 got 19 and below.
Generally, the students performed well in the test
with 23 or 70% getting a passing score of 38 and
above.
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
9. Another way of rearranging data is by
making use of the stem-and-leaf plot.
What is a stem-and-leaf plot?
Stem-and-leaf Plot is a table which
sorts data according to a certain pattern. It
involves separating a number into two parts.
In a two-digit number, the stem consists of
the first digit, and the leaf consists of the
second digit. While in a three-digit number,
the stem consists of the first two digits, and
the leaf consists of the last digit. In a one-digit
number, the stem is zero.
MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
10. Below is the stem-and-leaf plot of the
ungrouped data given in the example.
Stem Leaves
0 9
1 7,8
2 0,3,3,4,5,6,7,8,9
3 4,4,5,5,7,8,8,8,8,9,9,9
4 2,3,3,4,4,5,5,5,6,6,6,8,9
5 0,0,0
Utilizing the stem-and-leaf plot, we can readily see the
order of the data. Thus, we can say that the top ten
got scores 50, 50, 50, 49, 48, 46, 46, 46,45, and 45
and the ten lowest scores are 9, 17, 18, 20,
23,23,24,25,26, and 27. MCPegollo/Basic Statistics/SRSTHS
11. Exercise:
Prepare a stem-and-leaf plot and
present in textual form.

13. Frequency Distribution Table
A frequency distribution table is a table
which shows the data arranged into
different classes(or categories) and
the number of cases(or frequencies)
which fall into each class.
The following is an illustration of a
frequency distribution table for
ungrouped data:

27. Guidelines For Frequency Tables
1. Be sure that the classes are mutually exclusive.
2. Include all classes, even if the frequency is zero.
3. Try to use the same width for all classes.
4. Select convenient numbers for class limits.
5. Use between 5 and 20 classes.
6. The sum of the class frequencies must equal the
number of original data values.
28. Constructing A Frequency Table
1. Decide on the number of classes .
2. Determine the class width by dividing the range by the number of
classes (range = highest score - lowest score) and round
up.
class width round up of
range
number of classes
3. Select for the first lower limit either the lowest score or a
convenient value slightly less than the lowest score.
4. Add the class width to the starting point to get the second lower
class limit, add the width to the second lower limit to get the
third, and so on.
5. List the lower class limits in a vertical column and enter the
upper class limits.
6. Represent each score by a tally mark in the appropriate class.
Total tally marks to find the total frequency for each class.
29. Homework

38. Contingency Table
This is a table which shows the data
enumerated by cell. One type of such
table is the “r by c” (r x c) where the
columns refer to “c” samples and the
rows refer to “r” choices or
alternatives.
