In short

8 has come up most often, 778 times. Each number averages about 714 over 6,140 draws, and whichever number happens to lead normally finishes around 55 ahead. 8 is 64 ahead, so this is an ordinary spread rather than a streak. 28 has come up least, 658 times.

The statistics behind that

Expected count 714.0, standard deviation 25.1. The leader sits at 2.55 standard deviations against an expected maximum of 2.19 for 43 numbers; a lead at least this large arises by chance about 37% of the time. Goodness of fit to a uniform draw: chi-square 50.6 on 42 degrees of freedom, p = 0.169. How we calculate it.

Point at a bar — or tap one, or press the arrow keys — to see which number it is.

How far each number is above or below its average of 714 appearances. The shaded band is the normal range — where 19 of every 20 numbers land. 5 of 43 stick out, and about 2 normally do. The numbers printed on the chart are the highest, the lowest and anything outside the band.

Most and least drawn are 120 apart. For 43 numbers over 6,140 draws that gap normally comes out around 110, so this one is about what you would expect.

Frequently asked questions

Do hot and cold numbers predict anything?
No. The gap between the most and least drawn number here is 120 appearances, which is about what 6,140 draws produce on their own. The table is worth looking at; it is not worth betting on.
Why do your frequencies differ from other sites?
Mostly because we only count draws since the game last changed its set of balls: counting across a change mixes two different games. Cash 5 is published by a single official feed, and every draw here is that feed's record; our sources page says which.
What does the shaded band on the chart mean?
It marks the normal range — where 19 out of 20 numbers land when every one is equally likely. With 43 numbers on the chart, two or three sticking out above or below it is the usual picture rather than a sign of anything.
How far back does this Cash 5 data go?
Our full history runs back to January 1, 2010 — 6,140 draws. The frequency table on this page uses the 6,140 draws since January 1, 2010, which is every draw of five numbers from 1 to 43. Browse every draw by year.
