Chance of all weapon drops at once

Can someone crunch some numbers for me? I got all three rare drops from one Merman. (Chum Caster, Blood Rain Bow, and Vampire Frog Staff) What's the chance of this? I'm terrible at math, help me out here please. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AngryMiner5704 (talk • contribs) at 03:17, 19 September 2021 (UTC)

You multiply the chances. Each of these items has a 12.5% chance to drop, so the chance that all three drop at once is [math]\displaystyle{ 0.125 * 0.125 * 0.125 = 0.001953125 \approx 0.195% }[/math]. --Rye Greenwood (talk) 11:29, 19 September 2021 (UTC)
