How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($738,656) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,274,863), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $0.58 per $1 ticket — $0.58 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $0.42 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~8,582,800 tickets).
