Game: THE FROG FLIES
Aim: Help the frog catch the flies
Method:
Use keyboard arrow keys or tap your tablet/mobile to control the frog and catch the flies. Avoid the birds! Answer the math questions to win additional points.
Scoring is based on speed, flies caught and the number of correct answers.
8th grade / Statistics / Discrete data / Stem and leaf / Stem & leaf: mode median range
A stem and leaf diagram is a way of displaying a data set that shows the range of data in tabular form. Each data point is split into two parts, often splitting the first digit (the stem) from the remaining digit or digits (the leaf). This allows for a graphical division of the data into groups based on stems, with individual data points distinguished by their leaves. Stem and leaf diagrams can also be used for decimal numbers by splitting on the decimal point.
Stem and leaf diagrams make it relatively easy to find the mode, median and range for a data set. To find the mode from a stem and leaf diagram, look for the leaf value that appears most often in one row (do not count leaves from different rows as these are not the same value). The modal value is the most common leaf within one row combined with the stem according to the rule given by the diagram key.
To find the median value in a stem and leaf diagram, you should ensure that the diagram is ordered (stem values ascending from top to bottom, leaf values ascending from left to right). Then, count all the leaves in all the rows, and divide that number + 1 by 2. So if there are 15 leaves, the median value is at position (15 + 1) / 2 = 8. Count along all the leaves to the eighth leaf and read off the value as above by combining it with the stem value. If the median position falls between two leaves, calculate the median leaf value by adding the two values and dividing by two before combining it with the stem value.
To find the range of a stem and leaf diagram, take away the smallest value (stem and leaf) from the largest value (stem and leaf).
In this topic you are asked to calculate the mode, median or range of a series of stem and leaf diagrams. You will learn how useful these diagrams are for quickly deriving these values due to the way the data is laid out. There are 6 question/answer pairs in the lessons for this topic, and an additional 10 question/answer pairs in all the games and tests.
With our The frog flies math game you will be practicing the topic "Stem & leaf: mode median range" from 8th grade / Statistics / Discrete data / Discrete data. The math in this game consists of 16 questions that ask you to find the mode, median and range for each of these stem and leaf diagrams.
Learn or revise math with our fun interactive game THE FROG FLIES! You are a happy hungry frog in the middle of the jungle in the middle of the night. Catch the flies for your supper (and practice math just for fun).
You can play the game on tablet/mobile or desktop computer. On handheld devices you move the frog by tapping where you want it to move to. On a computer, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to move.
Sometimes a big bird swoops through the forest catching unwary amphibians so stay alert and get out of the way of its beak!
Scoring is based on flies caught, questions answered and number of deaths by bird. Your final score is your total points minus your time in seconds.
