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
For Bullseye, you pick 6 numbers from 0–9 (a pool of 10 numbers):
Each ticket covers exactly one combination, so your jackpot odds are 1 in 84 — which matches the official published odds of 1 in 1,000,000.
Does buying more tickets help?
Yes — but the improvement is smaller than you might think. Each ticket adds one independent combination to your entry. With n tickets, your jackpot odds become n in 1,000,000:
| Tickets | Jackpot odds | Approximate cost |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | 1 in 1,000,000 | ~$2 USD |
| 5 | 1 in 200,000 | ~$10 USD |
| 10 | 1 in 100,000 | ~$20 USD |
| 50 | 1 in 20,000 | ~$100 USD |
| 100 | 1 in 10,000 | ~$200 USD |
