Written this way so we can see the argument:
P(fail) = (1 / x^6,000,000).
This number, since it is a probability, must be bound between 0 and 1, so x must be 1 OR MORE. (i.e. 2, 3, 6.6 etc...)

Well, I would say 1. Or a very very small number.
I'm only in sixth grade, so I'm doing pre-PRE-algebra.

Of course this has nothing to do with mathematics. It has to do with prognostication.
