Take 5 number frequency, odds and draw history

Take 5 draws 5 numbers from 39. This page counts 12,720 draws under the current rules, from January 17, 1992 to November 10, 2026, sold in New York.

How often each number has been drawn

Across 12,720 draws each ball should turn up about 1,631 times. Random variation alone spreads that out, and about 19 in 20 balls land between 1,555 and 1,706. 1 of the 39 balls fall outside it and chance alone would put about 2 there, so this is an ordinary result. 38 balls are indistinguishable from random.

This is the part worth reading twice. A number drawn more often than its neighbours has not become more likely, and the table below is sorted only because people expect it to be. The average wait between appearances for any one ball is 7.8 draws, so a gap several times that long is ordinary rather than overdue.

Ranked by how often each number has been drawn. Ranking is not a signal, it is what any fair draw looks like when you sort it.
