Frequently Asked Questions for statistics about Distance on SET FOR LIFE
The distance is the difference between the highest and the lowest number drawn in a single lottery draw.
No. Mid-range distances are generally more common, while very small or very large distances appear less frequently.
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.
The largest possible distance happens when the lowest drawn number is 1 and the highest drawn number is 47. In this case, the numbers are spread across the entire range, and the distance is 46.
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.
