What do these numbers show?
- The average spread across 50 draws was 27.8. The random model has an average of 28.7 — a difference of 0.9. This is a descriptive comparison, not a test result.
- The median spread in the range is 29: at least half of the 50 draws had a spread no greater than this value (source: history).
These are historical data. Each draw is independent of previous draws, so these numbers do not tell us what will be drawn next.
How do I use this page?
- Choose a number of recent draws or a range of years.
- Compare the historical average spread with the model average.
- Use the interval table to see how often the spread fell within each interval.
- The “% model” column shows the share of all possible combinations that have that spread.
What this page does not do: does not suggest numbers to play or predict the spread of the next draw.
There is no data to show for the selected range. Choose a different range above.
Spread of numbers in a draw
Spread is the difference between the largest and smallest of the 5 drawn numbers. In Mini Lotto it can take values from 4 to 41. The random model gives its exact distribution — calculated from all possible combinations, not from a simulation.
The model distribution is not fully available right now. The history figures below are complete; missing values in the model columns are marked with a dash, and the model average and range sums with a missing component are not calculated.
Spread histogram for the range
Horizontal axis: spread. Vertical axis: hits, i.e. the number of draws with that spread. Number of draws in the range: 50. The chart shows only values present in the data — missing spreads are not added.
You'll find the current data for the selected range in the tables below.
Average spread in the range
27.8
Number of draws: 50. Smallest and largest spread in the range: 13–38
Median spread in the range

at least half of the draws had a spread no greater than this value (source: history)
Model spread (average of the distribution)
28.7
source: random model, all 5-out-of-42 number combinations equally likely; a dash marks an incomplete distribution
Most frequent spreads in the range
Observed = how many times that spread occurred in draws from the range. % model = the share of combinations with that spread among all possible ones; a dash = model value unavailable.
| spread | observed | % of draws | % model |
|---|---|---|---|
| 31 | 6 | 12.0% | 5.3% |
| 29 | 5 | 10.0% | 5.0% |
| 28 | 4 | 8.0% | 4.8% |
| 34 | 4 | 8.0% | 5.1% |

Spread distribution in ranges
History next to the model, in ranges of five spread values, from 4 to 41. A range with a missing model value has a dash in the model column.
| range | observed | % history | % model |
|---|---|---|---|
| 4–8 | 0 | 0.0% | 0.3% |
| 9–13 | 2 | 4.0% | 2.3% |
| 14–18 | 4 | 8.0% | 7.1% |
| 19–23 | 5 | 10.0% | 14.1% |
| 24–28 | 13 | 26.0% | 21.5% |
| 29–33 | 16 | 32.0% | 25.9% |
| 34–38 | 10 | 20.0% | 22.5% |
| 39–41 | 0 | 0.0% | 6.3% |
Methodology
The model assumes that every combination of 5 numbers out of 42 is equally likely. A combination with spread d has a fixed smallest and largest number d apart, with the remaining numbers lying between them — so the number of such combinations is (pool − d) · C(d − 1, picks − 2), and the probability of spread d is that product divided by C(pool, picks). History is calculated from raw draw counts in the selected range; a range of years sums the yearly counts. When the model distribution is incomplete, the page shows the history without a comparison and puts a dash — not a zero — in place of the model value. The difference between averages is a description, not a statistical test — the page does not assess its significance. The histogram shows the data rendered when the page loaded; after changing the range, the current figures are in the tables.
