A is a 1 in 800 chance
B is 1 in 70,000
70,000/800=875
It's 87.5 times more likely
ETA:sorry, typo
ETA 2: Derp. I missed a zero. Placebeaux is right. Mea culpa. I haven't done math in a long long time
B is 1 in 70,000
70,000/800=875
It's 87.5 times more likely

I'm trying to say "A is __x___ times more likely to happen than B." and I'm still drunk from last night.
