(CNN) � Days after a Powerball ticket won , the Mega Millions lottery closes in on a similar grand prize after no tickets won the jackpot in Friday’s drawing.
The numbers drawn were 29-40-47-50-57 and the Mega Ball was 25.
Eight tickets matched the first five numbers, each claiming a $1 million prize, according to . The tickets were sold in California, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina and New Jersey.
The next drawing on Tuesday will feature an estimated $820 million jackpot, the lottery said, with a lump-sum cash option available of $422 million for a winning ticket.
This marks the fifth-largest Mega Millions lottery run in its history, with the jackpot exceeding $1 billion on four previous occasions � most recently, a $1.348 billion ticket in January. A Mega Millions jackpot was won in South Carolina in 2018.
The odds of claiming the big prize are certainly long � around 1 in 302.5 million. But residents in 45 states, the District of Columbia and the US Virgin Islands can give it another chance before at 11 p.m. ET.
