DISTANCE 6

Suppose the numbers extracted are: 24, 33, 48, 2, 12, 25.

What is DISTANCE?

To answer this question, you have to rewrite the combination with the numbers in ASCENDING ORDER : 2, 12, 24, 25, 33, 48

D6 (there is only one value for D6).

Distance "6" – is the value of the difference between the first number (the smallest – in our case, number 2) and the sixth number (the biggest – in our case, number 48).

So, D6 = 48 – 2; D6 = 46;

The chart displays the values of the distances from 5 to 48 on the abscissa.

For each distance chart for 6, 5 or 4 numbers, there is a column with the number of occurrences on top, corresponding to each distance. Consequently, this criterion can be decisive for the selection made which means that you play so as to get the combination of 6 numbers or the combinations of 5 numbers or that of 4 numbers. It is possible to play 4 numbers and get 6 numbers, but the probability is low. The middle solution would be to play so that we get 5 winning numbers in the 20 – 35 area of distance where the reduction is optimal and if this time we do not get 5, we will certainly get 4.

We have to add that, for this type of reduction you can play as many numbers as you want and, following the reduction, there will not be a mathematical impediment with a fix number of winning combinations.


When applying the "DISTANCE 6" criterion, the next table displays the values for the number of combinations left out of the total of 13,983,816 combinations corresponding to each distance; the last column displays the probability of success (in percentage) for the selected distance.
