F-Distribution Variance Calculator

F‑Distribution Variance Calculator

Calculate the variance of an F‑distribution with numerator degrees of freedom \(d_1\) and denominator degrees of freedom \(d_2\):
$$ \text{Var}(F)=\frac{2\,d_2^2\,(d_1+d_2-2)}{d_1\,(d_2-2)^2\,(d_2-4)}. $$

* Note: \(d_2\) must be greater than 4.

Step 1: Enter Parameters

e.g., 5

e.g., 10 (must be > 4)

Formula: $$ \text{Var}(F)=\frac{2\,d_2^2\,(d_1+d_2-2)}{d_1\,(d_2-2)^2\,(d_2-4)}. $$
