Explanation / Answer

In order to construct a stem and leaf plot for the given data, break down the time taken in minutes into two parts-stem (represented by tens digit) and leaf (represented by ones digit). Thus, the stems are 2, 3, 4, 5, 6. Now, write the stems in ascending order and put the corresponding leaves next to the stem followed by a divider.

From the two given stem-and-leaf plots, one notices that first plot contains all the leaves corresponding to stem 2, that are three 0's, one 2, one 3, two 4's, one 5, one 7, and one 8. Second plot does not contain the leaf 8. In addition second plot contain leaf 8, which is not in accordance with the given data. Therefore, second plot is incorrect. Correct answer>plot 1.
