Both are multi-state U.S. lottery games played twice a week for $2 a ticket, but they use different number pools and schedules. Powerball draws 5 numbers from 1â69 plus a Powerball from 1â26, on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays. Mega Millions draws 5 numbers from 1â70 plus a Mega Ball from 1â25, on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Powerball's jackpot odds (about 1 in 292,201,338) are slightly better than Mega Millions' (about 1 in 302,575,350), though both are extremely long odds either way. Neither game's odds can be improved by any prediction method â every combination has an identical chance.
Yes. Powerball and Mega Millions are sold independently at authorized retailers (and via official state lottery apps/websites where permitted) in most U.S. states, so you can buy tickets for both if you choose.
