Free practice quizzes › Year 8 Maths quiz › Probability
Year 8 probability covers two-step experiments with tables and tree diagrams, Venn diagrams, two-way tables, complementary events and the language of and, or and not.
This topic sits inside the Victorian Curriculum for Year 8 maths; the questions stay at the easy and at-level tiers so the result is a fair check of the foundations.
The distractors in this quiz are built from real misconceptions rather than random wrong numbers, so a specific wrong answer usually points to a specific gap. The ones we see most at Year 8:
Each of these is fixable in a session or two once it has been named, which is why the results panel below shows the correct answer and an explanation rather than just a score.
The habits that move probability from shaky to secure at Year 8:
In secondary school the lift comes from regular independent practice with worked solutions to check against, and from fixing errors the same day. Twenty minutes, four times a week, is enough.
Every set on this page is a seeded selection of 10 from the 12 probability questions that pass our quality gate. A different seed gives a different set, and there are many more combinations than any one student will need. The correct answers never appear in the page source; the browser asks our server for them after you press Mark my answers.
A single-topic quiz is more precise than a mixed one: if the score here is low, the gap is in probability, not somewhere in Year 8 maths generally. It is still short, though, and it cannot show how a student copes with the stretch and challenge questions that decide a top result. That is what the free Skills Check adds.

The free Skills Check takes about 15 minutes, covers every Year 8 topic including stretch and challenge questions, and sends a same-day topic-by-topic report. A tutor calls to walk you through it, no obligation.
Our Year 8 practice papers are full-length, curriculum-aligned and come with worked answers, so a student can practise on paper the way the real test is sat.
Small groups from $25 an hour and 1:1 from $35 an hour at our Truganina centre, or online anywhere in Australia. Same tutors, same Skills Check, same progress notes either way.

Because a single-topic set is the most precise free check available: if the score is low, the gap is in probability and nowhere else. There are 12 eligible questions on this topic in our Year 8 Maths bank, so several different sets are available before any repeat.
From RHZ Tutoring's own Year 8 Maths question bank, written to the Victorian Curriculum, checked by a tutor and passed through an automated quality gate. The same bank feeds our tutoring sessions and the free Skills Check. The questions on this page sit at the easy and at-level tiers.
Read the explanation for each incorrect answer first; most gaps in probability are one of the misconceptions listed on this page. Then try a second set a few days later. If it is still low, the free Skills Check will show whether the gap is confined to this topic, and a tutor can build a short catch-up plan.
