Simple Probability

Grade 7 Math Worksheets

Probability means a chance of something happening.

See the statements below:

It will probably be a cold day today.

Most probably, Daniel will score 80% in his Math test.

There is a chance that my sister visits me today.

In all the statements above, there is a statement of uncertainty because words like “probably”, “most probably”, “chance” indicate that the event may or may not happen.
