Chances of a Winning Lottery

As my previous post of “I have won 1.5 million pounds”, I’ve found some interesting fact about the chances of a winning lottery. I’m usually telling my friends that the chance to hit the jackpot is begin struck by lightning “twice”. But the fact is unbelievable and fun! Check it out in WebMath.com.

Here are some other odds for the sake of comparison:
- You have about a 1 in 2,000,000 chance of being struck by lightning.
- A pregnant woman has a 1 in 705,000 chance of giving birth to quadruplets.
- Someone eating an oyster has a 1 in 12,000 chance of finding a pearl inside of it.
