LordRobunaga 02/01/24 6:43:28 AM #1:	I'm trying to get the average percentage success of two separate events occurring, but its been ages since I've messed with that particular side of math and I haven't had much success with google. The example is Event 1 has a 5% chance to succeed Event 2 has a 28% chance to succeed What's the formula to get the overall percentage chance for both events to succeed? <cite>LordRobunaga posted [p:978592327] in Math quest...
