Ontario · Grade 7
G7.D2
Grade 7 — Describe the likelihood that events will happen, and use that information to make predictions.
A note on this mapping: Ontario numbers its Data expectations per grade document and the specific numbering could not be verified line by line here, so this tag names the strand's OVERALL expectation rather than guessing at a specific one.
The skill that covers it
What a student should be able to do
- Compute a relative frequency from a table of trial results.
- Predict how often an outcome will occur in a longer run of trials.
- Compare an experimental probability with a theoretical one and say why they differ.
- Explain why more trials give a more trustworthy estimate.
