How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($21,709,980) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,360,897), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $15.95 per $20 ticket — $0.80 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $4.05 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~1,848,900 tickets).
