The search is on in the US for the winners of the world's biggest ever lottery jackpot - $640m (£400m).
Three tickets have now been announced as sharing the massive prize, with the winners in the states of Maryland, Kansas and Illinois.
Americans spent an estimated $1.5bn to enter the draw for the jackpot, which had reached the record level because no-one had matched the winning numbers since the end of January.
Forty-two states took part in the draw.
The numbers drawn on Friday night were 2, 4, 23, 38, 46, and the Mega Ball was 23.
Mike Lang, a spokesman for the Illinois Lottery, said his state's ticket was sold in the town of Red Bud, near St Louis.
Maryland Lottery said its winning ticket was sold in Baltimore County.
There is no information so far on the Kansas ticket.
The winners can choose between receiving their full allotment in 26 annual payments, or a lower instant cash option.
