There's no such thing as an "average" cannon. But looking at US howitzers:
105mm howitzer: 11,600m
155mm howitzer: 18,000m
175mm gun: 34,000m
203mm howitzer: 16,800m
The 175mm gun had such a long range because it was designed to destroy rear-echelon targets like division headquarters. It was also intended to kill Soviet heavy artillery pieces like the 2S5 (152mm gun) and 2S7 (203mm gun) because it could shoot farther than either of those pieces.
The 203mm M110 howitzer, a Corps-level asset, has been replaced by the Multiple Launch Rocket System.

Factors to take into effect include the angle, weight of the cannonball, amount of powder used and the wind. The longest range appears to be about 80 miles for shells fired from The Paris Siege Gun in World War I.
