ATLANTA - The jackpot in the multistate Mega Millions lottery drawing grew to $55 million Saturday.

None of the tickets sold for Friday's $45 million drawing matched all five lotto numbers and the Mega Ball. The next drawing will be Tuesday.

There were five second-prize winners from Friday night's drawing, matching all five lotto numbers but not the Mega Ball number to win $250,000 each. Also, 28 tickets matched four of the five lotto numbers, plus the Mega Ball number. Those tickets are each worth $10,000.

The winning numbers from Friday's drawing were: 24, 27, 42, 47 and 50. The Mega Ball number was 8.
