How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($41,924,320) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (2,900,764), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $14.45 per $20 ticket — $0.72 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $5.55 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the CT Lottery published print run (~3,139,650 tickets).
