Most Common Mega Millions Numbers

Which Mega Millions numbers have come up most and least, which are "overdue", and which pairs show up together. Counted from 162 real draws, Apr 8, 2025 to Oct 23, 2026.

Plain truth: every Mega Millions draw is random. Each number has the same chance every time, no matter how often it came up before. These counts show what already happened; they cannot predict the next draw. Play for fun, with money you can afford to lose.

Mega Millions changed on April 8, 2025 ($5 tickets, 24 gold Mega Balls, a built-in multiplier), so stats count draws from that date. That is a smaller sample, so the counts move around more. With 162 draws, each white ball would be expected about 12 times by pure chance.

"Overdue" does not mean "due". A number is never more likely because it has been missing.
