How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($39,335,520) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (5,614,053), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $7.01 per $10 ticket — $0.70 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $2.99 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Texas Lottery published print run (~5,614,100 tickets).
