lottery pool shares calculator
The price of one share is the pool's total cost divided by the number of shares. The trouble starts when one member takes two shares, another takes five, and the division leaves stray cents. The calculator works in whole cents and shows what each person owes, who has paid and what is missing, without rounding wrongly or losing a cent along the way.
Total of BRL 24.00 across 8 shares of BRL 3.00.
The 4 leftover cents go to the first 4 people on the list.
If everyone pays BRL 4.29 they collect BRL 30.03; 3 cents are left.
A BRL 3.00 fee; BRL 33.00 total across 4 shares.
Only the 2-share member has paid: BRL 18.00 of BRL 24.00 is missing.
Divide the total cost by the number of shares. Five Powerball tickets at $2 cost $10; split in 4 equal shares, each is $2.50. When the division does not come out even, such as $10 in 3 shares ($3.3333...), the calculator works in cents: 1,000 cents divided by 3 is 333 each with 1 left over, so one person pays $3.34 and two pay $3.33, adding up to exactly $10.00.
Divide the total cost, plus any fee, by the total number of shares. In a BRL 60.00 pool with 10 shares each costs BRL 6.00. When someone holds several shares, multiply the share price by their count.
Yes. Each member can hold 1 to 100 shares in the calculator, and what they owe and receive is proportional. Brazil's Caixa pool is described by the press as running from 2 to 100 shares in total, so an official pool has to respect that ceiling.
Spread them by a written rule. The tool uses largest remainder, with ties decided by list order, and the parts always add up. Another way is to round the share up and leave the few leftover cents with the organizer.
