How the OSRS Pet Chance Calculator works

Single-roll probability is 1 divided by the drop-rate denominator. Cumulative chance after n independent attempts is 1 minus (1 minus p) raised to n. Dry chance is the complement. Attempts for a target probability use the logarithmic inverse of the cumulative formula and are rounded up.
