FACTS

A single ticket sold in New Jersey matched all six numbers in Wednesday night's drawing to win an $847 million Powerball jackpot, Powerball announced.

It is the ninth-largest jackpot in Powerball history. The winner can take the $847 million annuity, paid in 30 payments over 29 years, or a $363.1 million lump sum, both before taxes.
