    75% students read less than 35 pages.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The stem and leaf plot is given below

    0 | 5 0 5 8

    1 | 2 3 5 8 8 9

    2 | 2 4 6 7 7 7

    3 | 3 5 6

    4 | 2 4 6

    5 | 7

    Count the students in each row.

    Row 1 = 4 students

    Row 2 = 6 students

    Row 3 = 6 students

    Row 4 = 3 students

    Row 5 = 3 students

    Row 6 = 1 student

    Total students = 23 students

    75% of 23 students = 0.75/100 · 23 = 12.25 students

    75% of 23 students ≅ 17 students

    From the stem and leaf plot, 17th student read 33 pages while 18th student reads 35 pages.

    Which means

    75% students read less than or equal to 33 pages.

    OR

    75% students read less than 35 pages
