Numbers drawn in $487 million Powerball jackpot

DES MOINES, Iowa (AP) - The winning numbers for the Powerball are 11-17-21-23-32 and Powerball 5.

Saturday's $487 million jackpot is the nation's eighth-largest lottery jackpot, but the odds of winning are incredibly small: one in 292.2 million.

It's unclear if a winning ticket has been purchased. If there isn't a winner, the jackpot will increase and another drawing will be held Wednesday.

There has not been a winner since May 7, when a family from New Jersey won a $429.6 million jackpot.

Tickets are sold in 44 states, the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
