    Answer: $3,866,182.89

    Explanation:

    The winnings in 45 years are the future value of the $80,000 that you just won based on the return rate of 9%.

    Future Value = Present Value (1 + return) ^ number of years

    = 80,000 (1 + 0.09) ⁴⁵

    = $3,866,182.89

    Lottery winnings will be worth $3,866,182.89 when you retire.
