Pick 3 — Minnesota Lottery
Sum analysis for Minnesota Pick 3 examines the distribution of digit sums (the total of all three drawn digits). Sums range from 0 (0-0-0) to 27 (9-9-9), with middle values being far more common due to combinatorial probability.
The sum distribution table shows each possible sum value with its count and percentage. The peak range (typically 12-15) has the most combinations. Sum statistics include the average, median, most common, and least common sums.
Sum distribution follows a bell curve by mathematical necessity — there are more three-digit combinations that sum to 13-14 than to 0 or 27. This is probability, not a pattern to exploit.
