The Binomial Standard Deviation Calculator

The formula to find the standard deviation of a binomial distribution is:

σ = √n*p*(1−p)

Here, n is the sample size and p is the population proportion.

To calculate the standard deviation for a binomial distribution, you need to specify the n and p in the boxes below, then click the ‘Calculate’ button:

σ = 2.2361

Calculation steps:


σ = √n*p*(1−p)

σ = √20*0.5*(1−0.5)

σ = 2.2361

Use this calculator whenever you want to find the standard deviation of your binomial distribution quickly.
