Strand: STATISTICS AND PROBABILITY (7.SP)
Use random sampling to draw inferences about a population (Standards 7.SP.1-2). Draw informal comparative inferences about two populations (Standards 7.SP.3-4). Investigate chance processes and develop, use, and evaluate probability models (Standards 7.SP.5-8).Standard 7.SP.4

For example, decide whether the words in a chapter of a seventh-grade science book are generally longer than the words in a chapter of a fourth-grade science book.
