ATLANTA — Tuesday night's Mega Millions drawing produced one grand prize winner in New York, while a handful of people in Georgia came away with five-figure prizes.
The grand prize was worth about $20 million after a larger jackpot - $476 million - was claimed last Friday night. That $476 million jackpot was also won in New York.
In Tuesday night's drawing, the winning numbers were 7, 9, 15, 19, 25 with a yellow "mega ball" number of 4. The "megaplier" winnings multiplier was worth 2x.
