The largest stem is 3, found in the bottom row. This represents 300 thousand or 300,000.

The largest leaf in the bottom row is 7 and that represents

7*(10 thousand) = 70 thousand = 70,000

Adding the stem and leaf values gets us

300,000 + 70,000 = 370,000

The most expensive home sold was $370,000
