Suppose Bill and David both buy lottery tickets 6/49. When buying lottery tickets, they have to choose 6 numbers from 49 numbers - 01, 02, 03, , 49. Bill uses Auto-Pick to randomly select 6 numbers, while David uses his birthday at 17:25 on October 5, 2001 as his six numbers: 20-01-10-05-17-25.
How are the winning lottery numbers chosen?
