A ticket with all six numbers in Friday evening’s multi-state Mega Millions draw was sold in Ohio and its owner must decide whether to receive the $143 million jackpot in 30 installments or its estimated $84.3 million cash value.
A ticket with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, was sold at a gasoline station in West Los Angeles and is worth $570,123, the Multi-State Lottery Association, which conducts the game, announced.
There were also three other tickets sold in California with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, which are also worth $570,123. There were eight tickets sold outside California with five numbers, but missing the Mega number.
California law requires major payoffs of lottery games to be paid on a pari-mutuel basis.
The numbers drawn Friday were 4, 5, 10, 12, 18 and the Mega number was 21.
The drawing was the 10th 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 302,575,350, according to the Mega Millions website. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 24.
The Mega Millions game is played in 44 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. Virgin Islands.
The jackpot for Tuesday’s drawing will be $40 million.
