First Five: 14-21-31-34-54
Mega Ball: 11
Megaplier: 3x

Tuesday night's 05/25/21 Mega Millions jackpot was worth $20 million, with a cash-value option of $13.5 million. There was no grand prize winner on Tuesday, so the jackpot increases to $22 million for the 05/28/21 drawing on Friday.

The winning numbers last Friday (05/21/21) for the $516 million jackpot were: 06-09-17-18-48 with a Mega Ball of 08. The Megaplier was 3x.

There was one grand prize winner from Friday's drawing from a ticket sold at a 7-Eleven in Levittown, Pennsylvania, which is north of Philadelphia and just south of Trenton, New Jersey. There were no tickets sold that each matched the first five white balls, and minus the gold Mega Ball, for the game's second prize of $1 million.

There were 53 tickets sold nationwide on Friday that matched four of the five white balls and the Mega Ball for the $10,000 third prize. Only 10 of those purchased the Megaplier for an extra $1, which made their third-prize winnings worth $30,000.

Before last Friday, the last grand prize jackpot winner was from a ticket for $96 million sold in New York on 02/16/2021. It was the second grand-prize ticket sold this calendar year after a ticket sold in Michigan on 01/22/21 for $1.05 billion, which was the second-largest jackpot in Mega Millions history.
