The eighth largest lottery prize in the history of the country was won in the United States. A 1,13 billion USD Mega Millions ticket was sold in New Jersey.
The odds of matching all six numbers and winning the jackpot in Mega Millions are 1 in 302,6 million.
After subtracting federal income tax (37%) and possible state tax (10-15%), the amount of winnings will be significantly reduced.
As a result, the winner will receive not 1,13 billion USD, but 537,5 million USD. Tochka.by reports this with reference to The Guardian.
