How does the F-Distribution Calculator work?

F = (s₁²/σ₁²) / (s₂²/σ₂²) Then: Degrees of freedom: df₁ (numerator) and df₂ (denominator) Then: If F > critical value: reject H₀ at chosen α Then: F-test used in ANOVA, regression significance.

Can you give an example of how to use the F-Distribution Calculator?

Example: Input F=3.5, df₁=3, df₂=20, α=0.05 gives a result of Critical value ≈ 3.10; F > critical, reject H₀.

Is the F-Distribution Calculator free to use?

Yes — completely free with no registration, download, or subscription required. All calculations happen instantly in your browser.

How accurate is the F-Distribution Calculator?

Our F-Distribution Calculator uses verified mathematical formulas and is accurate to multiple decimal places. Results are calculated in real-time using the same methods used by professionals.

F=3.33 ≤ 3.33 → Fail to reject H₀

The F-distribution arises in statistical tests that compare variances or mean squares, such as ANOVA and regression analysis. The F-statistic is the ratio of two chi-squared distributions divided by their degrees of freedom.
