How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($2,517,485) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (836,363), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.01 per $5 ticket — $0.60 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.99 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~4,255,080 tickets).
