Answer:

C is the answer

Explanation:

Stem and leaf plots were also confusing to me at first, but once you understand they are actually easy!

Look at the first column where it says 2,3,4,5 and 6. Those are the tens place. The columns next to it with 2,3,8,9,etc are the ones place. For example, the first column has two, so we know that the number has a two in the tens place.

2_

Look at the numbers next to it, there's 2,3, and 8.

Since there's 3 numbers, that means that there are three numbers that have a two in the ones place. 2,3 and 8 are the numbers that go in the ones place.

So in the graph there is 22,23 and 28.

If you look at your choices, you can find all of them except 38, since on the row with the 3, next to it is the number 9 and not the number 8.
