The $50 million Powerball jackpot’s winning numbers have been made public.
Numbers 31, 35, 16, 13, 25, 18, and 1 were chosen as the winners. Powerball number 2 is drawn.
The drawing takes place exactly one month after a woman from South Australia became an instant billionaire by taking home the whole $40 million division one prize.
After a “difficult few months,” the Snowtown mother, who resides in the state’s Mid North, said she intended to use the money to take a global vacation.
Earlier this year, lottery organizers made clear the easy strategies, such as lucky numbers and places, that might raise your chances of winning the money.
The winning numbers that are drawn the most often from the main barrel are 17, 7, 2, 9 and 25. 31, 6, 33, 15 and 34 are the numbers that are drawn the least often.
The most commonly drawn numbers for the separate Powerball barrel are 19 and 3, while the least frequently drawn numbers are 18 and 16.
According to The Lott spokesperson Matt Hart, there have been six Powerball division winning entries that have won more than $226.6 million so far in 2022.
In addition to the three victories in New South Wales, there was one triumph each in Queensland, Victoria, and Western Australia.
“Two-thirds of those winning entries were QuickPick, where the numbers are selected for you when you buy a ticket by machine.”
Syndicates, of which one-third of Division One winners were a member, had a strong year, according to Mr. Hart.
The one-of-a-kind Powerhit entry, which ensure that one of your numbers is the significant Powerball, also accounted for a third of the 2022 winnings.
Instead of traveling to the newsstand or waiting for Powerball to call you, Mr. Hart advised participants to create an online account so they could check their numbers immediately after the draw.
14 Powerball players from throughout the nation won more than $550 million in prizes last year.
