TALLAHASSEE, Florida – The winning numbers for last night’s Mega Millions drawing on Tuesday, April 22, 2025, are:
No ticket matched all six numbers in the April 22, 2025, Mega Millions drawing, pushing the next jackpot for Friday, April 25, 2025, to an estimated $60 million with a cash option of $26.9 million. The jackpot for Tuesday’s draw was estimated at $50 million, with a cash value of $22.4 million, but it rolled over after no one claimed the top prize.
One ticket sold in Washington won $2 million for matching five white balls with a 2X multiplier. Meanwhile, five tickets matched four white balls plus the Megaball, earning $10,000 each, with several boosted by multipliers: three at $20,000 (2X), two at $30,000 (3X).
Mega Millions tickets cost $5 per play, which includes a randomly assigned multiplier (2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X) to boost non-jackpot prizes. Players select five numbers from 1 to 70 and one Mega Ball number from 1 to 24, or choose Easy Pick for random numbers. Matching all six numbers wins the jackpot, which starts at $50 million and grows until won.
There are nine ways to win, with prizes ranging from $5 to the jackpot. Drawings occur every Tuesday and Friday at 11 p.m. ET. Tickets must be purchased by the cutoff time, which varies by state (e.g., 10:45 p.m. ET in Florida). Players can buy tickets at retailers, lottery vending machines, or online in participating states.
