WASHINGTON (7News) — The next drawing for Wednesday’s Powerball drawing could be worth an estimated $454 million. The cash value is $271.9 million.

The numbers drawn on Monday were 12, 18, 20, 39, 61, and 10 – with a multiplier of 2. The estimated jackpot was $421 million, with a cash value of $252.1 million, according to the website.

Powerball drawings are broadcast live every Monday, Wednesday, and Saturday at 10:59 p.m. Eastern Time. Drawings are also live-streamed online at Powerball.com.

There are 9 ways to win a prize in Powerball. All prizes are set cash amounts, except the Grand Prize.

The numbers drawn Monday were 49, 10, 56, 39, and 47. The Powerball number was 8 with a multiplier of 3.

While there was no grand prize winner in Saturday’s drawing, more than 1.2 million tickets won cash prizes.

The Powerball jackpot has been hit twice this year. In the Jan. 5 drawing, two tickets in California and Wisconsin split a $632.6 million jackpot – the 7th largest prize in Powerball history. Then, in the Feb. 14 drawing, a ticket in Connecticut won a $185.3 million jackpot. Since then, there have been 29 drawings in a row without a jackpot winner.

To date, Powerball holds the world record for largest jackpot set in 2016. The record $1.586 billion jackpot was shared by winners in California, Florida and Tennessee.
