How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($1,330,775) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (410,904), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $3.24 per $5 ticket — $0.65 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.76 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~2,467,900 tickets).
