The winning Mega Millions numbers from Friday night’s drawing are (20, 63, 46, 59, and 3), and the Megaball is 13. This enormous jackpot ranks third in the history of the United States lottery.

Since 2017, consequently, nine of the ten largest lottery jackpots in history have been won.
The District of Columbia and the United States Virgin Islands now offer Mega Millions to their inhabitants, joining the other 45 states.
The New York Lottery is the largest and most profitable lottery in North America, generating billions of dollars for public schools in New York State.

The New York lottery asserts that their system takes into account the size and economic position of each school district, with larger districts receiving a larger proportion of lottery education funds due to their size and lower-income status.
