Number combinations are the "bread and butter" of any lottery game. Their actual magnitude depends on the amount and nature of numbers played [range] and the amount of numbers thereof to be combined [criteria]. Florida Lotto has the following combination characteristics, as defined in the legend below the table. [Table includes 49-Range data for All Draws].
