Answer: (a) 31 years; (b) 59 years; (c) 56 years

Step-by-step explanation: Steam and leaf is a table that shows the digits of the data value split into a "stem", which represents the first digit, and a "leaf", which is the last digit.

For example, the first row of the table in the attachment, indicate a "stem" 2 and the first number of a "leaf" is 1, so the actress has 21 years.

(a) According to the table, the youngest actor to win an Oscar has a "stem" 3 and the first "leaf" from the right is 1, so the actor has 31 years.

(b) The oldest actress is 80 and the youngest is 21, so difference is:

80 - 21 = 59

The difference is 59 years.

(c) The oldest age shared by 2 actors is 56 years.
