How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($4,917,525) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (678,234), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $7.25 per $10 ticket — $0.73 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $2.75 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~2,175,750 tickets).
