How the maths works
Lottery odds come from combinatorics — counting how many ways you can choose a subset of numbers from a pool. The formula is:
C(n, r) = n! / (r! × (n − r)!)
where n = pool size, r = numbers to choose

Each ticket covers exactly one combination, so your jackpot odds are 1 in 23,474,025 — which matches the official published odds.
