In the "Mega Millions Lottery" (Formerly "Big Game") I am curious about the statistics of winning numbers. Please list in ascending order of frequency, by individual number. Links to your references are fine, but any lotto site is blocked by my server. |

There is no answer at this time. |

What are the rules? How many numbers are you choosing from? If there are six numbers, is there one number that needs to be matched, and then five others? If there is also one separate number, could it be the same as one of the other five? Etc? What are the different combinations you want probabilities for? Match six numbers, five of six, etc? |

I found the rules and an odds chart. Here is a link. http://www.state.nj.us/lottery/games/1-1_mega_millions.shtml You pick: 1 of 46 and 5 of 56. The probability of winning the grand prize is 1 in 175,711,536. |

Here you go: 56 5 55 6 54 10 53 10 52 46 51 48 19 68 33 70 34 72 45 78 3 80 9 80 12 81 41 81 30 82 15 83 43 83 20 84 23 84 49 85 11 88 13 88 16 88 18 88 48 88 2 90 25 90 44 90 21 91 24 91 26 91 36 91 7 92 14 92 46 92 8 93 38 93 6 94 10 94 27 94 35 94 40 94 1 96 31 96 37 96 28 97 29 97 50 97 17 98 4 99 39 99 42 99 22 100 5 102 47 102 32 105 This is the number of times each number has been picked in the 925 drawings since September 1996. The number of picks for numbers above 50 are low because the numbers ran from 1 to 50 until May 2002, then from 1 to 52 until June 2005, and from 1 to 56 since then. "Mega ball" numbers ("money ball" before May 2002) are not included in the above statistics. |
