How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($5,444,825) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,632,018), 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 Washington's Lottery published print run (~3,170,200 tickets).
