Eh, US population is about 328 million, from that you could say maybe 50-100million play the megamillion or powerball. With Megamillion there appear to be 302,575,350 variables to choose from but of course this also means that people buying tickets could end up with the same numbers if they do quick picks. Just because 100 million play, and they buy let's just say 400 million tickets total, the variable of odds aren't going to be a 1:1 with every number variant.
Every time a ticket is produce you will get a 1/302,575,250 number combination. The next person that gets a ticket will get a 1/302,575,250 number combination, the next 1/302,575,250 and so on and so forth. So it is very possible that even if let's say all of America got a ticket, the odds of people having the same number in a equal variant are unlikely.
Such bs
How the hell do you not get a single person when there are millions playing!! This has been going on for months
