Frequently Asked Questions for statistics about Distance on EUROMILLIONS
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 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.
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.
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.
