Is it possible to win the lottery? What are the chances of matching the required number of numbers and winning the jackpot or junior category prize? The probability of winning is easy to calculate; anyone can do it themselves.

How is the probability of winning the lottery generally calculated?

Numerical lotteries are conducted according to certain formulas and the chances of each event (winning a particular category) are calculated mathematically. Moreover, this probability is calculated for any desired value, be it “5 out of 36”, “6 out of 45”, or “7 out of 49” and it does not change, since it depends only on the total number of numbers (balls, numbers) and the fact how many of them need to be guessed.

For example, for the “5 out of 36” lottery the probabilities are always as follows

• guess two numbers - 1:8
• guess three numbers - 1:81
• guess four numbers - 1: 2,432
• guess five numbers - 1: 376,992

In other words, if you mark one combination (5 numbers) on a ticket, then the chance of guessing “two” is only 1 in 8. But catching “five” numbers is much more difficult, this is already 1 chance in 376,992. This is exactly the number (376 thousand) There are all possible combinations in the “5 out of 36” lottery and you are guaranteed to win it if you only fill them all. True, the amount of winnings in this case will not justify the investment: if a ticket costs 80 rubles, then marking all the combinations will cost 30,159,360 rubles. The jackpot is usually much smaller.

In general, all probabilities have long been known, all that remains is to find them or calculate them yourself, using the appropriate formulas.

For those who are too lazy to look, we present the winning probabilities for the main Stoloto numerical lotteries - they are presented in this table

Necessary clarifications

The lotto widget allows you to calculate the probabilities of winning for lotteries with one lottery machine (without bonus balls) or with two lottery machines. You can also calculate the probabilities of deployed bets

Probability calculation for lotteries with one lottery machine (without bonus balls)

Only the first two fields are used, in which the numerical formula of the lottery is used, for example: - “5 out of 36”, “6 out of 45”, “7 out of 49”. In principle, you can calculate almost any world lottery. There are only two restrictions: the first value should not exceed 30, and the second - 99.

If the lottery does not use additional numbers*, then after selecting a numerical formula, all you have to do is click the calculate button and the result is ready. It doesn’t matter what probability of an event you want to know - winning a jackpot, a second/third category prize, or just finding out whether it’s difficult to guess 2-3 numbers out of the required number - the result is calculated almost instantly!

Calculation example. The chance of guessing 5 out of 36 is 1 in 376,992

Examples. Probabilities of winning the main prize for lotteries:
“5 out of 36” (Gosloto, Russia) – 1:376 922
“6 out of 45” (Gosloto, Russia; Saturday Lotto, Australia; Lotto, Austria) - 1:8 145 060
“6 out of 49” (Sportloto, Russia; La Primitiva, Spain; Lotto 6/49, Canada) - 1:13 983 816
“6 out of 52” (Super Loto, Ukraine; Illinois Lotto, USA; Mega TOTO, Malaysia) - 1:20 358 520
“7 out of 49” (Gosloto, Russia; Lotto Max, Canada) - 1:85 900 584

Lotteries with two lottery machines (+ bonus ball)

If the lottery uses two lottery machines, then all 4 fields must be filled in for calculation. In the first two - the numerical formula of the lottery (5 out of 36, 6 out of 45, etc.), in the third and fourth fields the number of bonus balls is indicated (x out of n). Important: this calculation can only be used for lotteries with two lottery machines. If the bonus ball is taken from the main lottery machine, then the probability of winning in this particular category is calculated differently.

* Since when using two lottery machines, the chance of winning is calculated by multiplying the probabilities by each other, then for the correct calculation of lotteries with one lottery machine, the choice of an additional number by default is 1 out of 1, that is, it is not taken into account.

Examples. Probabilities of winning the main prize for lotteries:
“5 out of 36 + 1 out of 4” (Gosloto, Russia) – 1:1 507 978
“4 out of 20 + 4 out of 20” (Gosloto, Russia) – 1:23 474 025
“6 out of 42 + 1 out of 10” (Megalot, Ukraine) – 1:52 457 860
“5 out of 50 + 2 out of 10” (EuroJackpot) – 1:95 344 200
“5 out of 69 + 1 out of 26” (Powerball, USA) - 1: 292,201,338

Example calculation. The chance of guessing 4 out of 20 twice (in two fields) is 1 in 23,474,025

A good illustration of the complexity of playing with two lottery machines is the Gosloto 4 out of 20 lottery. The probability of guessing 4 numbers out of 20 in one field is quite fair, the chance of this is 1 in 4,845. But when you need to guess correctly and win both fields... then the probability is calculated by multiplying them. That is, in this case, we multiply 4,845 by 4,845, which gives 23,474,025. So, the simplicity of this lottery is deceptive; winning the main prize in it is more difficult than in “6 out of 45” or “6 out of 49”

Probability calculation (expanded bets)

In this case, the probability of winning when using expanded bets is calculated. For example, if there are 6 out of 45 in the lottery, mark 8 numbers, then the probability of winning the main prize (6 out of 45) will be 1 chance in 290,895. Whether to use expanded bets is up to you. Taking into account the fact that their cost is very high (in this case, 8 marked numbers are 28 options), it is worth knowing how this increases the chances of winning. Moreover, it is now very easy to do this!

Calculation of the probability of winning (6 out of 45) using the example of an expanded bet (8 numbers are marked)

And other possibilities

Using our widget, you can calculate the probability of winning in bingo lotteries, for example, Russian Lotto. The main thing that needs to be taken into account is the number of moves allocated for the onset of winning. To make it clearer: for a long time in the Russian Lotto lottery, the jackpot could be won if 15 numbers ( in one field) closed in 15 moves. The probability of such an event is absolutely fantastic, 1 chance in 45,795,673,964,460,800 (you can check and get this value yourself). This is why, by the way, for many years in the Russian Lotto lottery no one could hit the jackpot, and it was distributed forcibly.

On March 20, 2016, the rules of the Russian Lotto lottery were changed. The jackpot can now be won if 15 numbers (out of 30) were closed in 15 moves. It turns out to be an analogue of an expanded bet - after all, 15 numbers are guessed out of 30 available! And this is a completely different possibility:

And in conclusion, we present the probability of winning in lotteries using a bonus ball from the main lottery drum (our widget does not count such values). Of the most famous

The principle of playing Gosloto in the 7 out of 49 format is similar to the rules of similar numerical lotteries. To participate in the cash prize draw, the player must place a numerical bet consisting of 7 or more numbers. The main goal of the game is to match 7 numbers out of a possible 49.

To place a game bet, a potential participant in the draw must take a free game coupon at lottery distribution points.

The choice of game combination can be carried out by the player himself or by the computer in an automatic way of playing.

There are 2 types of bets:

Standard bet – consists of 7 digits in one numeric field;

Extended bet – from 7 to 12 numbers in one numeric field.

To select a game in automatic mode, check the “Automatic” box on the coupon. One bet can take part in several draws; at the bottom of the coupon there is a line indicating the number of draws from 2 to 9. After filling out the game coupon and paying the bet, the player is given a lottery ticket.

The drawing is carried out on the website stoloto.ru, in real time. The circulation is held every Sunday at 22:00 (Moscow time). The gaming lottery machine determines 7 numbers, which represent the winning combination. Bets are considered winning if at least 3 numbers match the combination given by the lottery machine.
