In spite of people telling you that any individual number has an equal chance of being drawn you will never see 1,2,3,4,5, or 6 in a row in your life time when you are trying to pick several numbers from the same pool of numbers. This is because there is a BALANCE TO RANDOMNESS when multiple numbers are being picked from a pool of numbers. If all you are trying to pick is one number out of 53 than yes, each individual one number has an equal chance of being chosen. This all changes when you are trying to pick multiple random numbers out of the same pool of numbers. Out of, say, a pool of 53 numbers, you will see numbers somewhat spread out from 1 to 53 within the range of the numbers of the particular Lotto you are playing. The major Lotto games have you choose five numbers with a separate mega number. This being so, your 5 numbers should add up to around 150 to 165. Add up the last 100 lotto results and see what the average totals are. Pick your numbers to add up within that range. As your mega number use the number that is the most frequent one picked from the stats given on the lotto website. Or just use any mega number as this is the case where any one number is just as likely to be drawn as any other number. Good luck.
Above answer is ridiculous. Past drawing results have no effect on future drawings. And 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, have the same chance of coming up as any other combination. Random balance? C’mon?
You can analyze the data and see which numbers are drawn most often,
Go to the Virginia Lottery Mega Millions Game Analysis web site. The link is provided in the source section. At the site, you will find some excellent data. The data analyzes the last 380 drawings. Each number is analyzed by:
+ Number of draws
+ Last date that number was drawn
+ Percentage of times that number was one of the balls drawn
+ Total times each number has been the Mega Ball
+ Last date that number was the Mega Ball
Some interesting facts were found by scanning the data.
The number 14 is the most drawn number. Poor number 47 is the lowest drawn number. The most drawn Mega Ball number? 36. The least picked Mega Millions Mega Ball number is 28.
