For this particular Jackpot...If you played that kind of ticket....Lived in a state with no income tax(you just have to pay the federal rate of 37%)......and assumed there would be 1.66 winners....every $3 ticket you buy is worth $1.86.
If you assume only one winning ticket will be sold, Every $3 ticket you buy is worth $3.11

This also assumes you take the cash value option.
Right now the jackpot is $20 million with a cash out of $11.6. Every $3 ticket you buy is worth about nickle(assuming such a small jackpot will only have one winner).
