How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($5,585,245) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (228,422), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $24.45 per $30 ticket — $0.82 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $5.55 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~1,835,360 tickets).
