Every valid combination has this same jackpot probability.

1.40% of combinations

Using 1–31 narrows the combinations you choose from. It does not make any valid ticket more likely to be drawn.

Show the math and limits

The calculator chooses 5 distinct main numbers from the selected range, then multiplies by the ways to choose 1 bonus number from 24. It uses the current game rules stored in NumberCalendar and does not calculate lower-tier prizes, ticket cost, or expected value.
