Statistics worksheets

Start with summaries and relationships, then use probability models to estimate parameters and evaluate evidence. Choose a focused worksheet or prepare a sequence through Bayesian updating, tests, intervals and regression.

32 printable resources, from reference sheets to configurable practice with worked answers.

Choose a worksheet

Choose a starting point

Begin with averages, fractions, square roots and coordinate graphs. Use secure algebra before rearranging a z-score or fitting a regression line. For college inference, review probability models, functions and basic calculus. These are readiness suggestions; course order varies by school.

The convention changes the denominator

For the data 2, 4, 6, how much variation is there?

Mean 4; squared deviations total 8. Population variance is 8/3; sample variance is 8/2 = 4.

Divide by 3 if these are all the observations in the population. Divide by 2 when estimating population variance from this sample. Standard deviation is the square root of the corresponding variance.

Step 1

Describe the center and shape

Keep the observations and units visible. Compare a mean with a median, then use quartiles and box plots to describe spread without assuming a normal model.

Step 2

Measure variation

Decide whether the observations are the whole population or a sample. Show squared deviations, choose n or n - 1, then take the square root to restore the original units.

Step 3

Standardize and use a normal model

A z-score describes distance from the mean in standard-deviation units. Converting that score to a normal probability requires an explicitly stated normal model.

Step 4

Investigate paired observations

Inspect the plot before describing a linear association. Fit a least-squares line, compare observed and predicted values, and explain why a trend alone does not establish a cause.

Step 5

Connect data summaries to probability

Compare averages from observed data with probability-weighted expectations. Use a binomial model only when its fixed-trial, independence and constant-probability assumptions apply.

Step 6

Identify the inference problem

Separate observations and sample statistics from unknown population parameters. State what the data can describe and what requires an inferential model.

Step 7

Use likelihood and Bayesian updating

State a parameter model, compare likelihoods and update prior information. Keep evidence, posterior density, predictive probability and prior sensitivity distinct.

Step 9

Estimate with intervals and resampling

Match a z, t, chi-square, large-sample or bootstrap interval to its assumptions. State the quantile rule and interpret coverage correctly.

Step 10

Extend and assess a regression model

Evaluate squared error, inspect residual patterns and compare complexity using held-out information. Interpret a multiple-regression coefficient with the other predictor fixed.

Keep assumptions with the calculation

A small standard deviation describes concentration around a mean; it does not show that data are normally distributed. A correlation describes linear association; it does not establish cause and effect. Predictions outside the observed range need extra caution.

Choose a method whose assumptions fit the observations. Confidence intervals concern a repeated-sampling procedure; credible intervals describe posterior probability under a stated prior and likelihood.
