Time to take your tickets and check your numbers because someone in New Jersey got rich! The Mega Millions lottery jackpot was on the rise after a single ticket won $ 410 million in the June 9 drawing, but it will no longer reset for next Tuesday’s drawing.
Here are the winning numbers in Friday’s draw:
08-33-39-54-58; Mega Ball: 17; Megaplier: 3X
The estimated jackpot for the drawing is $ 124 million. The cash option is approximately $ 99.9 million. If no one wins, the Mega Millions jackpot will get bigger for the next draw.
According to the game’s official website, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302,575,350.
Players choose six numbers from two separate groups of numbers: five different numbers from 1 to 70 and one number from 1 to 25, or select Easy Pick. A player wins the jackpot by matching the six winning numbers in a draw.
Jackpot winners choose whether they will receive 30 annual payments, each five percent higher than the previous one, or a lump sum payment.
Mega Millions drawings are on Tuesdays and Fridays and are offered in 45 states, Washington DC and the United States Virgin Islands. Tickets cost $ 2 each.
