How this return was calculated
We sum the value of all unclaimed prizes ($3,637,293) and divide by the estimated number of unsold tickets (1,878,022), assuming winning and losing tickets sell at the same rate. That gives an expected return of $1.94 per $3 ticket — $0.65 back per $1 played, or an expected loss of $1.06 per ticket.
Ticket counts come from the Washington's Lottery published print run (~2,588,100 tickets).
