Default Raffle winning odds (off topic)

This is off topic for this group but was hoping someone could give me an
answer.

Total tickets sold: 2000
Chances to win: 15
Tickets held: 20

Would my chances of winning a prize simply be 2000/15/20= 1 in 6.667 ?

The above seems logical but a little too simple. :-)
