Easter is the Sunday after the Paschal Full Moon. The Paschal Full Moon may occur from March 21 through April 18 inclusive. Thus, the date of Easter is from March 22 through April 25 inclusive. The date of the Paschal Full Moon is determined from tables, and it may differ from the date of the actual full moon by up to two days. This definition that uses tables instead of actual observations of the full moon is useful and necessary since the full moon may occur on different dates depending where you are in the world. If the date of Easter was based on local observation, then it would be possible for different parts of the world to celebrate Easter on different dates in the same year.
