Mega Millions Jackpot Unclaimed in Aug. 25 Drawing, Next Jackpot Set at $145 Million The Mega Millions lottery drawing for Tuesday, August 25, concluded without a jackpot winner, leaving the $130 million prize unclaimed. The cash option for the jackpot was valued at $55.5 million, but no player matched all five white balls and the gold Mega Ball. The winning numbers for the drawing were 7, 10, 47, 48, and 50, with the Mega Ball number 14. Despite the lack of a jackpot winner, there was one prize claim for the Match 5 with Megaplier category. A player in New Mexico won $2 million after applying the 2X Megaplier multiplier. This marked the only payout for the evening’s drawing. The next Mega Millions drawing is scheduled for Friday, August 28, with the estimated jackpot rising to $145 million. The cash value of the next prize is projected at $61.9 million. Mega Millions drawings occur at 11 p.m. ET every Tuesday and Friday, with results typically announced shortly after the draw. The odds of winning the jackpot remain at 1 in 290.5 million, making it one of the least probable outcomes in the lottery. Players must select five numbers from 1 to 70 for the white balls and one number from 1 to 24 for the Mega Ball.
