Grade 7 · Statistics and Probability

7.SP.C.6

Approximate the probability of a chance event by collecting data on the chance process that produces it and observing its long-run relative frequency, and predict the approximate relative frequency given the probability. For example, when rolling a number cube 600 times, predict that a 3 or 6 would be rolled roughly 200 times, but probably not exactly 200 times.

Cluster 7.SP.CInvestigate chance processes and develop, use, and evaluate probability models.

Where this sits in the school year

Our Grade 7 Math scope and sequence teaches 7.SP.C.6 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 →
