How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($36,359,170) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (5,222,412), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $6.96 per $10 ticket — $0.70 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $3.04 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Texas Lottery published print run (~8,190,100 tickets).
