Powerball draw 20260930: a low sum, a wide spread

2026-10-11 | Author: LottoAnalyse | Categories: - | Views: 0

Powerball's draw on Wednesday, 30 September 2026 came out as 4, 6, 23, 33, 44 with Powerball 13. Every draw is broken down the moment it is stored, so those six numbers can be put next to the 99 draws before them and read one statistic at a time.

The short version: the odd/even split is the most common one there is, the set has no consecutive pairs and repeats nothing from the previous draw, and all five numbers are close to their long-run frequency. What stands out is the sum — the fifth-lowest of the last 100 draws — and the fact that one of the three zones came up completely empty.

The sum is near the bottom of the window

Across the last 100 draws (20260211 to 20260930) the sum of the five front numbers runs from 93 to 276, with a median of 177.5. This draw's 110 is the fifth-lowest of the hundred: only 20260921 (93), 20260715 (94), 20260624 (102) and 20260923 (105) came out lower.

Distribution of Powerball front-number sums across the last 100 draws

The shape is not a property of any particular draw. A five-number set is drawn from 1 to 69, and most of those sets have a sum somewhere near the middle of the range; the two tails are thin. That is why a sum of 110 or below shows up in only five of the last 100 draws, and why a sum in the 160 to 190 band shows up so often.

The same 100 draws in order, oldest on the left

Odd/even: 2 : 3 is the most common split

23 and 33 are odd, 4, 6 and 44 are even, so the split is 2 odd to 3 even. Of the last 100 draws, 34 had exactly that split, more than any other; 3:2 was next with 24. So on this measure the draw is not unusual at all.

One whole zone came up empty

Powerball's front area is divided into three zones: 1-23, 24-46 and 47-69. This draw put 4, 6 and 23 in the first zone, 33 and 44 in the second, and nothing at all in the third, for a zone ratio of 3:2:0. Only two of the last 100 draws had that exact shape, and the other one was 20260715, whose sum was 94 — the same low-sum corner of the window.

An AC value of 6 is as high as it gets

The AC value measures how scattered a set is: take every pair of numbers, write down the differences, throw away the duplicates, and subtract one less than the number of numbers. Five numbers make ten pairs, so the ceiling is 10 − 4 = 6. For 4, 6, 23, 33, 44 the ten differences are 2, 10, 11, 17, 19, 21, 27, 29, 38 and 40 — all ten different, so this set scores the maximum.

Reaching 6 is not rare on its own: 71 of the last 100 draws did. It is worth reading next to the low sum, though, because AC measures spacing rather than size. A set can be made of small numbers and still be spread out, and this one is: 4 and 6 sit two apart, there is a gap of 17 to 23, then 10 more to 33 and 11 to 44.

No consecutive pairs, and nothing repeated

No two of the five numbers differ by 1, and none of them appeared in the previous draw. Both are the common case: 76 of the last 100 draws had no consecutive pair, 72 repeated nothing from the draw before, and 56 of the hundred had both at once. On this measure the draw looks like the majority of draws.

Where the six numbers sit in the long record

Which Powerball front numbers came up, draw by draw, over the last 100 draws

Across the 1,414 Powerball draws on record at the time of writing, each of the 69 front numbers would be expected to appear about 102.5 times. The five drawn here are all close to that: 23 has come up 118 times, 33 117, 44 111, 6 109 and 4 98. Powerball 13 has come up 53 times against an expectation of about 54.4. None of the six is a long-run outlier in either direction.

What is more interesting is where they stood just before this draw. Going into 20260930, 44 had not been drawn for 30 draws, 6 for 21, 4 for 20, 33 for 15 and 23 for 7; Powerball 13 had been missing for 19. Three of the five numbers that arrived in this draw had been absent for at least 20 draws.

What this does not say

All of the above describes a draw that has already happened. Draws are independent: a number being "overdue" does not make it more likely, and a low sum does not make a high one more likely next time. The window statistics describe the shape of the game, not a trend to follow.
