I like the idea of using a Chernoff bound, but 652 is way too low to be the answer! But I get, as solutions for exp(-2(.01n-5)^2 / n) = .01, n = 10.4 and n = 2

- dadkins 17y agoOh you're right, that's the solution. Silly me, the moment I go to a computer to solve the final equation I get it wrong!
