The winning ticket in California was sold at a 7-Eleven convenience store in Sacramento, the California Lottery said.
The winning numbers for the Powerball jackpot drawn Wednesday night were 6, 14, 25, 33 and 46. The Powerball was 17.
The winners have a cash option of splitting $450 million. The jackpot was one of the largest in the history of the Powerball game, but it didn’t rank among the Top 10 largest in U.S. lottery history.

Powerball is played in 45 states plus Washington, D.C., the U.S. Virgin Islands and Puerto Rico.
