The stem-and-leaf plot above shows house sale prices over the last week in Tacoma. What was the most expensive house sold? Give your answer in dollars

Answer 1

Answer: $360,000

Step-by-step explanation

The largest stem is 3. It refers to "3 hundred thousand" aka 300,000.

The largest leaf in that bottom row is 6. It refers to "6 ten thousand" aka 6*10,000 = 60,000.

Add those two items: 300,000 + 60,000 = 360,000
