Tuesday's Mega Millions jackpot was the largest in the history of the 44-state lottery, worth $667 million. It also marked the third-largest jackpot in US history. The winning numbers were drawn at 9 p.m. 

Here are the numbers:

69-45-61-3-49 Mega Ball: 9

It should be known later Tuesday or early Wednesday morning if there was a winner for Tuesday's jackpot. If no one matched all five numbers and the Mega Ball, then the jackpot will grow even larger on Friday. 

Only two jackpots have reached $600 million in the history of Mega Millions, with the largest jackpot being claimed in 2012 worth $656 million.
