How this return was calculated

We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($738,810) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (221,368), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.34 per $5 ticket — $0.67 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.66 per ticket.

Ticket counts come from the Rhode Island Lottery published print run (~596,800 tickets).
