Megaplier: 4x

Tuesday night's 04/26/22 Mega Millions jackpot was worth $31 million, with a cash-value option worth $18.6 million. There was no grand prize winner from the drawing, which increases the next jackpot to $43 million.

The winning numbers last Friday (04/22/22) for the $22 million jackpot were: 07-28-29-58-59 with a Mega Ball of 10. The Megaplier was 3x.

There was no grand prize winner on Friday, but there were two tickets sold—one each in Florida and New York—that matched the first five white balls, and minus the gold Mega Ball, for the game's second prize of $1 million. Had they purchased the Megaplier for an extra $1, their second prizes would have been worth $3 million.

There were five tickets sold nationwide on Friday that matched four of the five white balls plus the Mega Ball for the $10,000 third prize. Three of those purchased the Megaplier for an extra $1, which would have made their third-prize winnings worth $30,000 apiece.
