Hence it needs to be a probability chosen out of the 53 (which we do
know).
No, Wait.
I can show if this is true for 100, this will be true for _any_ number.
* As we are generating a random number within 100, the probability of each
number being picked up is 1/100.
* So the probability of getting a number within 85 is always 85/100.
* Lets assume there are n requests to distribute.
* Whatever be the value of n, the random number's probability of being
in range <85
is 85/100.
* So out of n requests, n*85/100 requests will always be routed to X
irrespective of the value n.
* Lets say n=10..So X gets 10*85/100 = 8.5 requests.
* Lets say n=27 so X gets 27*85/100 = 22.95 requests.
* If n=1, then the probability that X will get that particular requests is 85%.
Correct?
Problem with this is that you never know n :)
