Calculate the midrange of a dataset by averaging the smallest and largest values.
Last updated: June 2026 | By Patchworkr Team
Midrange is the average of the minimum and maximum values in a dataset. It gives a quick sense of the center using only the extremes.
For the dataset 12, 45, 67, 23, 89, 34, 56, 78, the midrange is 50.5.
Does the midrange use every value?
No. It only uses the minimum and maximum values from the dataset.
Can I enter decimals?
Yes. Any finite real values are accepted.
What if the list has one number?
The midrange equals that number, because min and max are the same.
What if the input is blank?
Blank input is rejected instead of being interpreted as zero.
