Mega Millions Numbers Drawn: $70 Million Jackpot Up For Grabs
The winning numbers for Friday’s, Dec. 12 Mega Millions drawing have been revealed, with a hefty $70 million jackpot (or a $32 million cash option) at stake. The lucky numbers are: 10, 50, 55, 58, 59 and the Mega Ball is 5.
Lottery officials are currently verifying if any tickets matched all six numbers to claim the grand prize. Players are urged to check their tickets carefully.
For those who didn’t win the jackpot, there’s another chance just around the corner. The next Mega Millions drawing is scheduled for Tuesday, Dec. 16 at 11 p.m.
Tickets cost $5, allowing players to choose five numbers between 1 and 70 (white balls) and one number between 1 and 24 (the gold Mega Ball). A “Quick Pick” option is also available for randomly generated numbers. Michigan residents can purchase tickets in-store or online until 10:45 p.m. on the night of the drawing.
Mega Millions has a built-in multiplier, randomly assigned at the time of purchase, that can increase non-jackpot prizes by up to 10 times.
The odds of winning the jackpot are approximately 1 in 290,472,336.
Winners have the option of receiving their winnings as an annuity (one immediate payment followed by 29 annual payments, each 5% larger than the last) or as a lump-sum cash payment.
The drawing can be viewed on YouTube, and winning numbers are posted on the Mega Millions and Michigan Lottery websites.
