The winning ticket, worth a hefty total of $1,311,695, was sold at the Town & Country Market on Post Street in San Francisco, NBC Bay Area reports. The triumphant digits drawn on Saturday were 47, 54, 57, 60, 65, and a Powerball of 19. Despite the unclaimed $1.4 billion jackpot, these funds will accumulate for following draws. The upcoming drawing, set for Monday, will see the jackpot swell to an estimated $1.55 billion, sparking eager anticipation among ticket holders.
The California Lottery's announcement underscored a notable detail - the state's educational sector stands to benefit from Powerball's elusive jackpot.

Concurrently, the state continues to profit from each unclaimed jackpot, utilizing the funds to enrich education.
