How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($4,851,200) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (319,847), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $15.17 per $20 ticket — $0.76 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $4.83 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~1,575,000 tickets).
