I throw a dice. If I get the number 4 I win.
Each throw I have a 16.67% (1/6) chance of winning.
If I throw the dice N times, how do I calculate the probability of getting a 4 at least once across all the N throws?
Do I just multiply the percentage by the number of throws (so if I throw 12 times I have a 200% chance of winning)?
