How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($3,599,030) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (261,119), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $13.78 per $20 ticket — $0.69 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $6.22 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~3,100,710 tickets).
