What these statistics mean
Every figure on this page counts past Powerball draws under the current rules (since October 7, 2015); the results archive keeps all 2,017 draws. “Hot” numbers are the most drawn in the last 50 draws; “cold” numbers are those with the longest current gap. Neither label says anything about the next draw. Every draw is independent: the machine has no memory, so a number that has come up often, rarely or not for a long time has exactly the same chance as any other in the next draw. These figures describe what has happened, not what will.
