Frequently asked questions

What does "distance" mean in lottery statistics?
The distance is the difference between the highest and the lowest number drawn in a single lottery draw.
Is the distance evenly distributed across all possible values?
No. Mid-range distances are generally more common, while very small or very large distances appear less frequently.
How does distance relate to the sum of numbers?
Both are measures of distribution: the sum shows the total size of the drawn set, while the distance shows how far apart the extremes are. They can be analyzed together for a fuller picture.
What is the smallest possible distance on EUROMILLIONS?
The smallest possible distance happens when all five main numbers are consecutive. In this case, the difference between the lowest and the highest number is only 4.
What is the largest possible distance on EUROMILLIONS?
The largest possible distance happens when the lowest drawn number is 1 and the highest drawn number is 50. In this case, the numbers are spread across the entire range, and the distance is 49.
What other terms are used for "distance" in lottery statistics?
In lottery statistics, the distance — defined as the difference between the highest and the lowest drawn number — may also be called the range or the spread. These terms all describe the same calculation: largest number – smallest number.
