Sports Scores and Statistics

Math on the Field

Sports are full of numbers—scores, averages, and statistics. Understanding how to calculate and compare these can help you follow your favorite games better.

Skills in Action

  • Calculating points and averages
  • Comparing team statistics
  • Figuring out winning margins

Real-World Impact

Coaches, players, and fans all use math to make sense of the action!

Examples

  • If a basketball player scores 12, 15, and 18 points in three games, what’s her average? (Average = \( \frac{12+15+18}{3} = 15 \))

  • Your team wins 5 games and loses 3. What’s your win percentage? (\( \frac{5}{8} = 62.5% \))
