Critical Values Calculator – Fast & Accurate

This tool helps you find critical values for your statistical calculations easily and quickly.






Critical Values Calculator

This calculator helps you determine the confidence interval for a given sample’s mean, standard deviation, size, and desired confidence level. Follow the steps below to use it:

How to Use

  1. Enter the sample’s mean (μ).
  2. Enter the sample’s standard deviation (σ).
  3. Enter the sample size (n).
  4. Enter the desired confidence level. Common levels include 80%, 85%, 90%, 95%, and 99%.
  5. Click the “Calculate” button to get the confidence interval.

How It Calculates

The calculator uses the z-score associated with the chosen confidence level to compute the margin of error. It then adds and subtracts this margin of error to/from the mean to get the lower and upper bounds of the confidence interval.

Limitations

This calculator assumes a normal distribution and uses z-scores. For larger sample sizes, a t-distribution might be more appropriate. Also, accuracy depends on the precision of the input values.

Use Cases for This Calculator
