Mega Millions Lottery: Did you win Friday’s $ 82 million Mega Millions draw? Results, winning numbers (2/12/2021)

The Mega Millions jackpot for Friday’s lottery draw rose to $ 82 million with a cash option of $ 59.9 million.

The winning numbers were: 5, 14, 24, 25 and 27. The Mega Ball drawn was 14 with a Megaplier of 3X.

While no one across the country hit Tuesday’s $ 68 million jackpot, a second prize ticket sold in Oklahoma matched five numbers, but not the Mega Ball. It is worth $ 4 million instead of the usual $ 1 million since the winner spent $ 1 more for the Megaplier option

In New Jersey, 28 tickets matched four numbers, lottery officials said. Two were purchased with the Megaplier option and are valued at $ 2,000 each. The others are worth $ 500 each.

The winning numbers for Tuesday were: 7, 18, 21, 31 and 40. The drawn Mega Ball was 9 with a Megaplier of 4X.

Mega Millions tickets cost $ 2 each and in New Jersey must be purchased by 10:45 p.m. on the night of the draw. 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 shot of 1 in 12,607,306 to win the second prize of at least $ 1 million by matching five numbers.

The game is played in 45 states, Washington DC and the US Virgin Islands.
