Cash 5 — North Carolina Lottery · All-Time
The most common North Carolina Cash 5 numbers are ranked by all-time appearance count. With larger number pools, some numbers naturally appear more often over limited samples — this analysis quantifies those differences.
The frequency table ranks every number in the game's pool by total appearances. The pair frequency section shows which two-number combinations appear together most often. For games with bonus balls, bonus frequency is tracked separately.
All numbers have equal probability in each draw. Frequency differences over a limited history are expected statistical variation, not evidence of bias.
