The Powerball jackpot has skyrocketed to a whopping $935 million after there were no winners in Wednesday's drawing.
The last time someone won a Powerball jackpot was in Michigan on New Year's Day, when one winning ticket matched all the numbers for a $842.4 million prize. Since then, there have been 37 consecutive drawings without a jackpot winner, according to Powerball.
If there had been a winner after Wednesday's drawing and they chose the lump-sum payment option, they would have taken home $416.1 million after taxes, according to the lottery.
The numbers were rolled and selected just after 11 p.m. ET on Wednesday, and we have the results from the drawing below. The next drawing is on Saturday, March 30 at 11 p.m. ET.
Here are the winning numbers for the Wednesday, March 27 drawing:

How to play Powerball
In order to purchase a $2 Powerball ticket, you'll have to visit your local convenience store, gas station or grocery store − and in a handful of states, you can purchase tickets online.
To play, you will need to pick six numbers in total to mark on your ticket. Five numbers will be white balls ranging from numbers 1 to 69. The Powerball is red and one number which is between 1 and 26.
If you want to increase your chances of winning, you can add a “Power Play” for $1 which increases the winnings for all non-jackpot prizes. This addition can multiply winnings by 2X, 3X, 4X, 5X, or 10X.
Players can also ask a cashier for a "Quick Pick" where a cashier will give you a computer generated numbers on a printed Powerball ticket.
Drawings are held on Monday, Wednesday and Saturday nights. If there's no jackpot winner, the cash prize will increase by millions.
