dbchoong Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 There were 44 winning tickets in last night's Toto!! All sharing a pot of $6m - each winning ticket got $137k. Bruce Almighty at work!! I'm really amazed! What's the odds of 44 tickets winning the 1st prize? Based on simple probability calculation: The odds of a winning ticket is (Toto's system is between 1 to 45): 1 / (6/45 * 5/44 * 4/43 * 3/42 * 2/41 * 1/40) = 1 in 8,145,060 To have 44 winning tickets is 44 * 8,145,060 = 1 in 358,382,640 :o
synthesis1624705793 Posted July 7, 2007 Posted July 7, 2007 Those 44 people must feel painfull. If I won first price I would expect to bag at least 1M. Oh hang on a second, I haven't checked my tickets...
