Why is it impossible to win the lottery

Question

why is it impossible not to win the mega millions

weve played for 5 years and not won anything

Answer 1

Statistically, the chances of winning the lottery are 1 in roughly 1.46 million.

It really depends on how many balls and if there is an extra number draw from a separate pile of balls.

If you post how many balls, i can give you an exact chance.

Good luck anyway

Answer 2

Because the odds are phenominal.

Think about it this way. Lets just say a lotto ticket costs you 1 dollar. Okay then someone scores it huge...lets say they get 1 Million. Now lets say that the state gets half of the money you spent on the lotto ticket. If the odds are $1 million, that means 2 million people played.

To make it simpler lets just say the state makes no money, and the guy still wins $1 Million. Well then that is 1 Million people paying 1 dollar for 1 ticket.

So to have a big jack pot you have to have nearly impossible chances.

Answer 3

It's not necessarily impossible, but the odds are like 1 in 1 million, so sorry, but you're not gonna win.

Answer 4

Someone just won the Powerball last night,

Odds: 1 in 146,107,962

I know one girl who played the same numbers in the CA lottery every week. After 4 months she gave up. Three weeks later her numbers hit.

I know one couple who played the same numbers in the CT lottery every week for 10 years. One week the wife thought the husband bought the tickets; husband thought the wife bought the tickets. No one bought any tickets. The numbers hit.

You never want to give up 5 minutes before the miracle happens.

Answer 7

Because the "house" will always have the advantage. They don't want a lot of people to win only a few. It's not impossible, just very very hard. If you want to win something, play scrach offs or a pick 3 you'll have a better chance.

Answer 8

Because the odds are astronomical.

Buy scratch tickets, smaller payouts but way more likely to win.
