Adding Percents

[Mateo]

So lets say every 4 hours, 17 minutes, and 10 seconds there is a 3.5714% chance of something happening. Then, lets say, 17 hours 5 minutes and 10 seconds go by. What is the % chance of something happening once over that course of time and how would you find out?

Are you doing last minute HW? =P

Currently, the game rolls an 84-sided die every 4 hours, 17 minutes, and 10 seconds (15,430 seconds in total). A hat is given on a roll of 1, 2, or 3 (3.5714% chance).

If you don't know that's fine by me, but for the record my teachers aren't awesome enough to give me homework based on TF2. I know it says the chances of getting a hat, but I want to know how they calculated the chances.

Did you know google can be used as a calculator?

True story. Type in something math like 55*5 and it'll give a result, or 50 kilometers in miles.

[Mr.LoLHaX]

Lol I did the actual math.

Can't click it otherwise it'd probably like divide by zero since I'm using chrome.
