Mega Millions lottery: Did you win Friday’s $50M Mega Millions drawing? Live results, winning numbers (02/21/ - NJ.com

The Mega Millions jackpot for Friday’s lottery drawing has jumped to an estimated $50 million with a cash option of $35.3 million.

The winning numbers were: 4, 7, 13, 16, 60 and the Mega Ball was 6 with a Megaplier of 4x.

While no one across the country hit Tuesday’s $45 million jackpot, a pair of second-prize tickets matching five numbers, but not the Mega Ball, were sold across the country.

A ticket bought in Arizona is worth $1 million, while one purchased in California is valued at $567,187. California lottery prizes vary depending on ticket sales and number of winners. They differ from the fixed second prizes offered in other participating states.

In New Jersey, 11 tickets were sold that matched four numbers. Two were bought with the Megaplier option and are worth $1,500. The other nine are worth $500 apiece.

It’s been more than a week since a $202 million jackpot winning ticket was bought at Quick Stop on Inman Avenue in Edison. The winner has yet to step forward and will have the option of remaining anonymous thanks to a new law passed in New Jersey earlier this year.

Mega Millions tickets cost $2 each and in New Jersey must be bought by 10:45 p.m. on the evening of the drawing. The odds of a ticket hitting the jackpot by matching five numbers and the Mega Ball are 302,575,350 to 1. Players have a 1 in 12,607,306 shot to win the second prize of at least $1 million by matching five numbers.

Mega Millions is played in 45 states, Washington D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
