$1.7 BILLION: Powerball jackpot juggernaut keeps rollingReply
At the risk of generating a post generating obsessive, unreadable, tiresome and useless nonsense about memos and such, I would like to suggest that the Poisson distribution for probability of numbers of winners, based on the estimated number of sales for this drawing as posted on the Texas Lottery website, $467,466,068 (corresponding to 233,733,034 tickets) suggests the following number of winners: k, number of winners p(m,k) 0 43.52% 1 36.21% 2 15.06% 3 4.18% 4 0.87
