Ltes say that you can take any possibility and turn it into a fraction.
We’ll call this number 1/|x|, where x is any real number that displays the probability of something happening.
We’ll make another number, X, that represents the chance that what we want to happen doesn’t happen. We can show this as X = 1-(1/|x|)
A rule of statistics is that to see the probability of two things happening sequentially or at the same time, you multiply them together. For example, if the chance it’s raining where I am is 1/50 and the chance that it’s raining in China is 1/20, the chance it’s raining in both places is 1/1000.
Since each individual try for life is independent, you can apply the same concept.
If we then take the equation X(n) = (1-(1/x))^n, you can see that we can make X infinitely approach 0. Since X is our chance that it doesn’t happen and the limit of X(n) as n approaches infinity is 0, that means the chance that it does happen as X approaches infinity is 1.
In conclusion, after enough repeated, INDEPENDENT, tries, anything can happen.
