The rules for playing Mega Millions involve choosing six numbers when purchasing a ticket. The first five numbers are picked from 1 to 70 for the white balls, while the last number is selected from 1 to 25 for the golden Mega Ball. For those finding it challenging to select numbers, the option of Easy Pick or Quick Pick is also available, generating random numbers for the ticket. In some states, players can add a Megaplier for an extra dollar, which could multiply non-jackpot winnings by up to five times.
