The New Quaterno - Solving a riddle

Malta Independent Sunday, 5 July 2009, 00:00 Last update: about 18 years ago

According to the Maltco Lotteries Quaterno Adverts, you have 11 different chances of winning with every ticket: One chance of winning E200,000; four chances of winning E500; six chances of winning E30

A friend of mine handed me a Result Form issued by a particular Lotto Office dated 20 June. Winning column: 63-56-79-18-88

Could Maltco explain why in Q2 there were 80 winners but only E1000 were disturbed while in Q3 there were 9120 winners but only E6840, were distributed. A simple multiplication in both cases will show otherwise/

I am eagerly awaiting an explanation from the competent authority.
