There were no tickets sold with all six numbers in the latest drawing of the multi-state Mega Millions lottery, pushing the estimated jackpot for Friday’s drawing to $130 million.
A ticket with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, was sold in New Jersey and is worth $4 million because it had a multiplier of 4, according to the Mega Millions Consortium, which conducts the game.
The numbers drawn Tuesday were 17, 21, 24, 57, 69 and the Mega number was 12. The estimated jackpot was $120 million.
The drawing was the eighth since the last time a ticket with all six numbers was sold.
The odds of matching all five numbers and the Mega number is 1 in 290,472,336, according to the Mega Millions Consortium. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 35.
The Mega Millions game is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. Virgin Islands.
