F Table: F Distribution Critical Values

Six complete F tables, one for each significance level from 0.10 down to 0.001, with numerator degrees of freedom to infinity and denominator degrees of freedom to 500 and infinity.

At a glance

Computes
F critical values at six significance levels, any numerator and denominator df
You supply
Numerator degrees of freedom, denominator degrees of freedom, and a significance level
Use when
You want the printable grids, a left-tail value, or a value off them
Not for
One critical value for one alpha and one df pair Critical Value Calculator

This page is the grid, and for the F distribution that means six grids: one for each significance level 0.10, 0.05, 0.025, 0.01, 0.005 and 0.001. For one alpha and one pair of degrees of freedom, use the critical value calculator. Both pages use the same quantile function. Read the numerator first: F on 10 and 12 degrees of freedom is not F on 12 and 10.

For one-way ANOVA, groups minus one.

For one-way ANOVA, total observations minus groups.

Numerator first, and why it matters

F(df1, df2) is not F(df2, df1). At alpha 0.05, F(10, 12) is 2.7534 while F(12, 10) is 2.9130. An observed statistic of 2.85 clears one threshold and not the other.

Significance level 0.1 (cumulative probability 0.9)

Body values are F such that P(F <= x) = 0.9. Numerator degrees of freedom run across the top; denominator degrees of freedom run down the left.

Significance level 0.005 (cumulative probability 0.995)

No second published table covers this significance level. Its 740 continuous cells are checked against the reciprocal identity and direct survival residual; the remaining doubly-infinite point-mass cell is exactly 1.

Body values are F such that P(F <= x) = 0.995. Numerator degrees of freedom run across the top; denominator degrees of freedom run down the left.

Reverse lookup: statistic to p-value

How to read this table

Pick the table for your significance level. Find numerator df across the top and denominator df down the left. Reject when the observed F statistic exceeds the cell.

Left-tail values, and the reciprocal identity

Printed F tables give upper-tail values. The lower value follows from the reciprocal distribution with the degrees of freedom swapped: the cumulative quantile Q(p; d1, d2) equals 1 divided by Q(1-p; d2, d1). The Both tails mode shows both values.

Degrees of freedom that are not on the grid

Interpolation in two dimensions is unnecessary here. Enter the exact numerator and denominator df and the value is computed for that pair. The printed artifact is bounded at nineteen numerator values and thirty-nine denominator values.

P(F <= x) = I_z(df1 / 2, df2 / 2) How?

How this is calculated

Published upper-tail cells are solved through the reciprocal lower-tail identity so their small tail keeps its significant digits. Infinite degrees of freedom use exact chi-square limits rather than a large finite substitute.

The alpha 0.005 grid is verified by internal consistency: each of its 740 continuous cells satisfies the reciprocal identity and its direct survival residual; its remaining doubly-infinite point-mass cell is exactly 1. No second published table covers that complete level, so this page does not claim one.

The one cell where this page disagrees with a published table. At significance level 0.01 with one numerator and one denominator degree of freedom, NIST prints 4052.19 and this page prints 4052.18. The closed form tan squared at 0.495 pi gives 4052.180695476829122, which rounds to 4052.18.

Formula: P(F <= x) = I_z(df1 / 2, df2 / 2)
