$560M Mega Millions: Winning numbers for Friday, July 14

WASHINGTON — The Mega Millions jackpot is up to $560 million for Friday night's drawing. Will you be the lucky winner of Mega Millions' seventh-largest prize ever?

The jackpot has been growing for months with no grand prize winners, though a handful of $1 million tickets have been sold. With the growing Powerball jackpot reaching $875 million, this weekend’s Powerball and Mega Millions jackpots are worth a combined $1.435 billion.

Winners almost always take the cash option, but they do have a choice to instead get the full amount in regular payments over 29 years. The cash prize for Friday's drawing is $287 million.
