In the United States, 43 states, Washington D.C., Puerto Rico, and the US Virgin Islands all have their own lottery. A lottery is used for states to raise money. Licensed stores sell number tickets, or people can pay to choose their own numbers. When you let a machine pick your numbers, it is usually called a quick pick.
