Since last July, State Lotteries and Betting put tickets on sale to participate in the famous Extraordinary Christmas Draw 2024, an event that will take place next Sunday, December 22already forming part of the great traditions of the Christmas festivities, so there are many people who are currently searching for their favorite numbers to win one of the great prizes to be distributed.
Specifically, they went on sale 193 million tenths of the Christmas Lottery 2024a larger number than last year, when only a total of 185 million tenths were made available to participants.
The number of tenths that are put up for sale is clear. However, as happens every year, many people do not understand exactly how these tenths that are put up for sale are divided. At this point, other specific terms of the Christmas giveaway come into play, as is the case of series or banknotes.
How many series are there of the same number?
Understanding what the series are and how many there are is important, since it is common for the prizes to be distributed to be mentioned by series. What does this mean? That, for example, the Jackpot of the Christmas lottery, which is the largest prize distributed, is awarded to the series and not to the tenth, that is, 4 million euros can be won from the series, which is 400,000 euros per tenth.
Firstly, as defined by the State Lottery and Betting website itself, one series is the “set consisting of one ticket of each number that participates in the draw”. To understand it, you have to know that the bill matches the series for a given number.
So how many series are there? Specifically, This year’s Christmas lottery draw has 193 series, each of which has 100,000 numbers. set formed by a ticket of each number that participates in the draw”. To understand it, you have to know that the ticket matches the series for a given number.
In this way, each one of the 193 series of which the draw consists contains 100,000 ticketsone million tenths each of them. To put it another way, each series has 10 tenths of each of the figures between 00,000 and 99,999, which are the numbers that make up the draw.
Do you still not understand it? Well, just explain it with an example. Series 1 has a bill (10 tenths) of the number 00000. This same series 1 has another bill (10 tenths) of the number 00001, another bill of 10 tenths of the number 00002 and so on up to the number 99999. In this way, if multiplied, the total of tenths is 193 million.
This means that the 2024 issue amounts to 3,860 million euros and, like every year, 70% of this total euros will be distributed in prizes. That is, the Christmas raffle this year will distribute a total of 2,702 million euros in prizes, as collected from State Lotteries and Betting.
