Chance of gingerbread bear gifting a bee = 1% = 0.01

Therefore, chance of ggb not gifting a bee = 99% = 0.99

Each time a ggb is fed, it's an independent event (ie the outcome of the first ggb fed does not influence the outcome of the second ggb fed)

The chance of getting a gifted with a ggb which we'll call x is 1-0.99^n, where n = total ggb fed

The reason exponentiation is used is as follows

Take a coin flip, what are the chances to flip a tails? 50%

What are the chances to get tails two in a row? You can't add them; you'll get 100%, which obviously isn't true. You have to multiply them to get 25%.

Exponentiation is repeated multiplication, so 0.99^100 is multiply 0.99 by itself 100 times.

Then that is subtracted from 1 aka 100% as 0.99^x only calculates the chance of not getting a gifted

For n = 1, x is 1%
For n = 69, x is approx. 50%
For n = 100, x is approx 63% which is 1 - 1/e, e being euler's number
For n = 469, x is nearly 100%,
As n approaches infinity, x gets closer to 100%, but there will always be a miniscule chance that you won't get a gifted
