In this birthday problem worksheet, high schoolers solve 1 probability word problem.  Students determine the number of people needed to have a 50% probability that two people will have the same birthday.

In this Binomial Probability Distribution, learners use the binomial probability formula to determine the success of a given probability. Using the given parameters, students write a probability equation and solve the problem. They...

Class members demonstrate a proficiency with conditional probabilities through this task. Individuals calculate probabilities using multiplication and addition. They also distinguish between repetition and non-repetition while...

Who said life was fair? An interactive uses an area diagram to represent the probabilities of flipping unfair coins. Pupils use the diagram to calculate the probabilities of outcomes of flipping the two coins. The scholars must decide...

Sixth graders interpret linear and nonlinear graphs. They create graphs based on a problem set. Next, they represent quantitive relationships on a graph and write a story related to graphing.

The sum of the parts is greater than the whole. An interactive uses a Venn-like model to show the percentage of females from a survey that have a blue dress, a red dress, or both. The pupils determine the numbers in each category...

To recall or not to recall, that is the question. Using provided data, pupils calculate the percent of people that may fall ill on average. The scholars determine the standard deviation based upon the mean and the empirical rule,...

For this probability word problem worksheet, learners read a short scenario about 2 brothers who wish for a puppy and answer 5 questions related to probability.

We know a coin should have a 50/50 chance of landing on tails. But what is the probability if it lands 43 out of 83 times? Use the lesson and accompanying resources to teach, practice, and assess about probability of events. 

Find the percent of the population that meets the criteria. The 17th segment of a 20-part unit presents problems that involve percents of a population. Pupils use tape diagrams to create equations to find the percents of subgroups...

In this probability and predictions learning exercise, learners read 1 page of facts, then solve 8 pages of problems related to probability, with answers keys included.

In this ratio and proportion worksheet, 8th graders solve 10 different word problems that include determining the ratio and probability of events described. First, they determine the ratio of hawks to crows in a cornfield. Then, students...

In these math lesson plans, students discuss how math problems are written to reflect real-world situations. They complete an online Math Hunt using specific web tools, and work individually to create their own Math Hunts....

In this recognizing probability word problems instructional activity, students use a probability line, a jar of balls, cards, a spinner card, and word problems to solve the probability problems. Students solve 35 problems.

In this probability worksheet, students solve 6 word problems where they determine the probability of certain outcomes that occur when spinning different spinners, rolling dice, choosing events and hitting targets.

In this using probability to solve word problems worksheet, students use statistics, averages, and even numbers, to problem solve. Students solve six problems.

In this algebra worksheet, learners solve word problems of the possibility of an event occurring using experimental probability. There are 10 questions with an answer key.

For some, probability is a losing proposition. The assessment item requires an understanding of fraction operations, probability, and fair games. Pupils determine the fractional portions of an event. They continue to determine whether...

Determine the probability that the class knows probability. The three-question assessment presents problems with finding the sample space and the probability, theoretical and experimental, of a variety of situations. Pupils also describe...

In the first installment of a 21-part module, scholars build on previous understandings of probability to develop the multiplication rule for independent and dependent events. They use the rule to solve contextual problems.

Time for statistics and learning to overlap! Learners examine Venn Diagrams as a means to organize data. They then use the diagrams to calculate simple and compound probabilities.

The fifth portion of the 25-part series introduces probabilities calculated from outcomes that are not equally likely. Class members use tables to calculate probabilities of events, add outcome's probabilities, and find...

When Bob starts planning out the average money made per customer, he needs some help. Young mathematicians look at the probability of how many bagels are purchased from one person, and then creates an equation based on the amount...
