How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($743,535) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (249,118), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $2.98 per $5 ticket — $0.60 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $2.02 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the New Jersey Lottery published print run (~5,922,540 tickets).
