To play the Mega Millions Louisiana Lottery consists of picking five numbers from 1 to 75 and one yellow Mega Ball number from 1 through 15. (You can play up to five different sets of numbers on each playslip but we will just assume one play per ticket to keep things straight.) Each play costs $1 and you can pay an additional $1 to apply a "multiplier" which multiplies any non-Jackpot prize by the Multiplier number (2, 3, 4, or 5) randomly selected at the time of the drawing.
