— The three lottery tickets that hit the $640 million Mega Millions jackpot were sold in Illinois, Kansas and Maryland, but three other tickets sold in Wisconsin—including one in Walworth—are each worth $250,000.

The two other tickets were sold in Eau Claire and Richfield, according to the Wisconsin Lottery.

The state also had 13 tickets worth $10,000 each.

Friday night’s winning Mega Millions numbers were 2, 4, 23, 38 and 46, and the Mega Ball was 23.

Wisconsin sold $9.3 million worth of Mega Millions tickets for this drawing, including $6.2 million sold on Friday alone.

Americans spent nearly $1.5 billion for a chance to hit the main jackpot. It amounts to a $462 million lump sum and around $347 million after federal taxes are withheld.
