The outcomes of a specific Montana state-sponsored game of chance, determining winning number combinations and prize amounts, are publicly disseminated. For example, a typical announcement might include five primary numbers and a separate “Cash Ball” number. These published outcomes allow players to determine whether their chosen numbers match the winning selection.
Access to this information is vital for players to ascertain their potential winnings. Transparency in disseminating these outcomes maintains public trust and ensures the integrity of the lottery system. Historically, lotteries have played a role in generating revenue for state programs. The ready availability of winning numbers contributes to the ongoing popularity and success of such initiatives.
