7.SP.C.5
Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event.
Where this sits in the school year
Our Grade 7 Math scope and sequence teaches 7.SP.C.5 in Unit 11: Probability, weeks 30–32.
Quantify chance from 0 to 1, build uniform and observed-frequency models, and find compound probabilities with lists, tables, trees, and simulation. See the full pacing guide →
