Answer 2

I am not exactly sure how this lotto works. But if you are asking for the probability of choosing a particular combination of seven numbers out of 40 without regard to order, it is 1 divided by 18,643,560.



This is because there are 18,643,560 ways to choose any combination of seven numbers out of 40, calculated as:



40C7 = 40! / [33! X 7!] = 18,643,560

Answer 3
