(Gray News) – The Mega Millions jackpot reached an estimated $1.22 billion on Friday after no one matched all six numbers drawn on Christmas Eve.
The winning numbers for Friday night’s drawing are 3, 7, 37, 49, 55 and the Mega Ball 6.
The cash value is estimated to be $516.1 million.
According to Mega Millions, the odds of winning the jackpot are 1 in 302,573,350.
Though no one won Tuesday’s jackpot, four tickets matched five of the numbers to win $1 million. Those tickets were sold in California, Missouri, Pennsylvania and Wyoming.
Friday’s jackpot would be the fifth-largest prize in the game’s history if won. It would also be the largest prize won in the month of December, according to Mega Millions.
Mega Millions says the jackpot has been growing since a $810 million jackpot was won on Sept. 10.
Tickets are sold for $2 in 45 states, Washington D.C. and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
