Welcome to Math-Center.Org’s Statistics and Probability page! This area of math helps students make sense of data and understand the likelihood of events happening. In the middle school curriculum—especially in Grades 6 through 8—students explore how statistics is used to collect, organize, and interpret data, while probability focuses on measuring how likely something is to occur, from certain and impossible to equally likely and unlikely. These skills are used in real-life situations like predicting outcomes, making decisions based on data, and understanding everyday contexts such as games, weather forecasts, and surveys. At Math-Center.Org, we provide clear explanations, real-world examples, and a wide range of online and printable practice to help students build strong foundations in both statistics and probability. Let’s explore how math helps us make informed decisions and understand the world around us!
