There were no tickets sold with all six numbers in Tuesday evening’s drawing of the multi-state Mega Millions lottery, pushing the estimated jackpot for Friday’s drawing to $42 million.

There were three tickets sold with five numbers, but missing the Mega number, one each in Florida, Minnesota and New Jersey. They are each worth $1 million, lottery officials said.

The numbers drawn Tuesday were 13, 22, 27, 29, 35 and the Mega number was 1. The estimated jackpot was $20 million.

The drawing was the first since the last time a ticket with all six numbers was sold.

The odds of matching all five numbers and the Mega number are 1 in 302,575,350, according to the California Lottery. The overall chance of winning a prize is 1 in 24.

The Mega Millions game is played in 45 states, the District of Columbia and U.S. Virgin Islands.
