FOX Business’ Madison Alworth explains how the Federal Reserve influences the Mega Millions jackpot on ‘Cavuto: Coast to Coast.’
The Mega Millions’ jackpot for $450 Million took another step forward Friday after nobody matched all six numbers the previous 33 consecutive drawings.
The winning numbers for Friday night’s drawing were 8, 10, 17, 55, 66, and the Mega Ball was 3. The Megaplier was 3X.
No one won matched all six numbers to win the estimated $450 million Mega Millions’ jackpot Friday.
The game’s prize has now risen to $480 million, with a cash option of $240.7 million, ahead of the next drawing on Tuesday.

There was also no grand prize winner in Wednesday’s Powerball drawing after a winning ticket didn’t match all six numbers, forcing the jackpot to roll over.
