Mega Millions jackpot grows to $640 million, one of largest prizes in lottery’s history

The Mega Millions top prize has now grown to an estimated $640 million after no player managed to match all six numbers in Friday night’s drawing.

The whopping jackpot, the seventh-largest in Mega Millions history, is the result of yet another winless drawing after nearly three months — or 25 drawings. The last time a ticket matched all six numbers was on April 18 in New York.

The numbers drawn late Friday night were 10, 24, 48, 51, 66, plus the gold Mega Ball 15. Four tickets matched all five white balls to win the second-tier prize. One ticket sold in South Carolina included the optional Megaplier, making it worth $2 million.
