There is a 48.3% chance the 5 numbers all fall in the range 1 to 34 There is a 56.4% chance the 5 numbers all fall in the range 1 to 35

I'd like to know (in a 5/39 game) how many numbers would a grouping need to be to have 50% chance? Ie: half of the time the 5 drawn should fall within the larger group.
