Mega Millions winning numbers for October 1 drawing: Jackpot at $93 million
View Date:2024-12-23 19:32:17
The Mega Millions jackpot keeps growing, with the prize now worth an estimated $93 million for Tuesday's drawing after no one claimed the prize on Friday.
The winning numbers were drawn just after 11 p.m. on Tuesday and we have them below.
Just three jackpot-winning Mega Millions tickets have been sold in the U.S. this year: First in March when a player in New Jersey won a whopping $1.1 billion − a prize that has yet to be claimed − and again in June when a player in Illinois won $552 million. And then there was an $810 million win in Texas on Sept. 10.
If someone wins Tuesday night's $93 million jackpot, they could take home an estimated $46.4 million lump-sum payment, according to the lottery.
Check below for the winning numbers from the Tuesday, Oct. 1 Mega Millions drawing.

How to play the Mega Millions
In order to buy a ticket, you'll have to visit your local convenience store, gas station or grocery store − and in a handful of states, you can purchase tickets online.
To play, you will need to pick six numbers. Five numbers will be white balls ranging from 1 to 70. The gold Mega Ball is one number between 1 and 25.
If you believe the odds are against you, ask for a "Quick Pick" or an "Easy Pick," the computer will randomly generate the numbers for you.
Players can add the "Megaplier" for $1, which can increase non-grand prize winnings by two, three, four or five times. The Megaplier is drawn before the Mega Millions numbers on Tuesday and Friday.
There are 15 Megapiler balls in all:
- 2X, five balls
- 3X, six balls
- 4X, three balls
- 5X, one ball
