The temperature with the highest frequency

The first step, is to plot the stem and leaf plot.

`\begin{array}{cc}{4} & {9\ \ } & {5} & {2\ 4\ 4\ 6\ 8} & {6} & {0\ 1\ } & {7} & {2\ 3\ } \ \end{array}`

Next, is to identify the leaf with the highest frequency.

Next, is to identify the accompanying stem of the leaf

The stem is 5

Hence, the temperature with the highest frequency is 54
