“The lotteries association estimates that 65% of revenue from ticket sales goes into the prize pool, and 24% is used for state initiatives.

The cash option
The cash option is based on what the lottery has in its prize pool on the day of the draw. For the $1.326 billion Powerball jackpot, the cash option was $621 million, which is a little less than half the jackpot.”

也就是说：$1.22B Mega Millions lottery，如果选择拿现金，只能拿到$571M。 而买彩票的总销售额是 $571M / 65% = $879M
