we know she invested 12000 in A, and say "b" dollars in B, so the total amount invested or principal must be 12000 + b.

\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{3em}\underset{\textit{\Large profit from A}}{\stackrel{\textit{5\% of 12000}}{\left( \cfrac{5}{100} \right)12000}}\implies 600~\hfill \underset{\textit{\Large profit from B}}{\stackrel{\textit{1\% of "b"}}{\left( \cfrac{1}{100} \right)b}\implies 0.01b}

we also know that those profits added together, yielded only 4% of the total amount invested, namely 4% of (12000 + b), which will be 0.04(12000 + b).

\bf \stackrel{\textit{\Large returned profits}}{\stackrel{A}{600}+\stackrel{B}{0.01b}~~=~~0.04(12000+b)}\implies 600+0.01b=480+0.04b \\\\\\ 120+0.01b=0.04b\implies 120=0.03b\implies \cfrac{120}{0.03}=b\implies \boxed{4000=b}

Bumek [7]

Answer:

If you hope to get the rare Deathcharger's Reins mount from Baron Rivendare for example, we know that it has a 1% drop chance. That means that every time you kill the Black Baron you have a 1% chance of getting the mount. 1% on the first kill, and 1% on the 100th kill. However, over the course of 100 kills, you have a much higher probability of getting the mount. But not 100%. Never 100%.
