Here is how to use the calculator, because you're still messing up the math a bit. We'll assume a 1% chance of death, and a population of 32. --- Probability = 0.01 Number of Trials = 32 Number of Successes = 2 Now you look at cumulative probability (P X>=2) = 4% --- You are correct that if bump the chances up to an annual 5.2% of death, then finally it starts becoming reasonably probable. So, for contrast, whistle blowers at Boeing seem to have approximately the same survival rate as somebody diagnosed with stage 3 breast cancer. |
