Fantasy 5 Number Frequency

Every Fantasy 5 number, colored by how often it has actually been drawn across 198 drawings since Jan 2026. That is roughly 367 draws a year of real results, updated as new numbers come in.

This page tracks how often every Fantasy 5 number has been drawn. Each number is colored by how frequently it has appeared in the games on record, from the most-drawn numbers in deep red down to the quietest in cool blue and violet.

Treat it as a record of what has happened rather than a prediction of what will. Fantasy 5 drawings are independent, so a number that has come up often is no more likely to appear next time. The frequency data is here for context, not as a system.

The Numbers Right Now

Number 7 leads all Fantasy 5 white balls, drawn 36 times — about +53% against the 24-draw average you would expect if every number were equally likely. At the other end, 26 has waited the longest, 44 days since its last appearance. These are facts about the past, not predictions — every draw is independent.

How Fantasy 5 works

To play Fantasy 5 you pick 5 numbers from 1 to 42. Drawings are held Daily at 11:34 PM ET, and a standard ticket costs $1.

The odds of winning the top prize are 1 in 850,668, and the odds of winning any prize are 1 in 9. The frequency counts on this page reflect every drawing in our archive for the game's current format.

What number frequency does and does not tell you

Every Fantasy 5 drawing is independent — the machine has no memory of past results. Over a long run of draws, small differences in how often each number lands are exactly what chance produces. A number that looks "overdue" is not owed an appearance.

That is why this data is best used for understanding the historical record, not for predicting outcomes. It shows you which numbers have shown up most and least, and it gives you an informed way to pick if you enjoy choosing numbers with a story. It cannot change the odds of the next drawing.

How to read the heat tiers

Every number is sorted into one of eight heat tiers, from Super Hot to Cold, based on how far its draw count sits from the average. Numbers reach the hottest or coldest tiers only when they are well clear of typical, while most cluster in the middle — which is what a fair game should produce.

Alongside the heatmap you will find hot numbers (the most drawn), cold numbers (the least drawn among those seen at least once), and overdue numbers (ranked by how many calendar days it has been since each last appeared).

Playing within your limits

Fantasy 5 is entertainment, and the statistics here are meant to make the game more transparent, not to suggest a way to beat it. Set a budget you are comfortable with and stick to it.
