A majority is the greater part, or more than half, of the total. It is a subset of a set consisting of more than half of the set's elements. Majority can be used to specify the voting requirement, as in a majority vote. A majority vote is more than half of the votes cast. A majority can be compared to a plurality, which is a subset larger than any other subset considered. A plurality is not necessarily a majority as the largest subset considered may consist of less than half the set's elements.
Odds Winning NY lotto. To win the New York Lotto game jackpot players must match six numbers out of 59. Players who match five winning numbers in addition to the Bonus number are awarded the second level prize, and there are also lower level prizes for players who match five, four or three of the winning numbers.
Of course, correctly picking all the winning numbers is hard to do, but it's what you need to do to win the jackpot. In Powerball, you choose five numbers and then a sixth number: the red powerball. The regular white numbers can range from 1 to 55, and the powerball can range from 1 to 42.
