Calculate a one-sample t statistic and its degrees of freedom from summary statistics.

How it works

Enter compatible statistical values. The calculator validates the inputs and applies t = (x̄ − μ₀) / (s / √n), with df = n − 1.

The formula

t = (x̄ − μ₀) / (s / √n), with df = n − 1

Variables: x̄ = Sample mean; μ₀ = Hypothesized mean; s = Sample standard deviation; n = Sample size.

Worked example

Example: x̄=105, μ₀=100, s=10 and n=25 give t=2.5 with 24 degrees of freedom.

Frequently asked questions

What is this Statistics calculator intended for?

It is an educational tool for descriptive and inferential statistical calculations from supplied values or summary statistics.

Does this calculator make a complete statistical decision?

No. Where a test statistic is calculated, the tool does not automatically replace study design, assumption checks, p-value interpretation, confidence intervals or subject-matter judgment.
