Figure 2.3.7 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It rains pennies from heaven
Don't you know each cloud contains
Pennies from heaven
You'll find your fortune
Fallin' all over town
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
You must have showers
So when you hear it thunder
Don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven
For you and me
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
If you want the things you love
You must have showers
So when you hear it thunder
Don't run under a tree
There'll be pennies from heaven
For you and me

this is five years late but would it be possible to show how to do it by hand because i dont really understand
@marthamorales8432
basically you look at the data. so the first numbers are 68,73, 85. so the "stem" is the first number of each in order. so stem is 6,7,8. then we look at the second number and put that as the "leaf" so it would be 8,3,5
Idk if that makes sense.
but if you have multiple numbers ( like 84,85,86) then 8 would be the stem and 4,5,6 would be the leaf (in this case the leaf is in order cause they are all under the 8)
look at videos from The organic Chemisrty tutor. I think he has one that explains it in detail !!!
