A chemical engineer desiring to study the evaporation rate of water from brine evaporation beds obtained data on the number of inches of evaporation in each of 55 July days spread over 4 years. The data are given in the following stem and leaf plot, which shows that the smallest data value was .02 inches, and the largest .56 inches.

.0	2, 6
.1	1, 4
.2	1, 1, 1, 3, 3, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 9
.3	0, 0, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 9
.4	0, 1, 2, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 4, 5, 5, 5, 7, 8, 8, 8, 9, 9
