Return Period given Probability Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Return Period = 1/Probability
T_r = 1/p
This formula uses 2 Variables

Variables Used

Return Period - Return Period [Years] is an average time or an estimated average time between events such as earthquakes, floods, landslides, or a river discharge flows to occur.
Probability - Probability of occurrence of an event (x ≥ xt), of how likely an event is to occur, or how likely it is that a proposition is true.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Probability: 0.006667 --> No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

T_r = 1/p --> 1/0.006667

Evaluating ... ...

T_r = 149.992500374981

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

149.992500374981 --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

149.992500374981 ≈ 149.9925 <-- Return Period

What is Log-Pearson Type III distribution?

The Log-Pearson Type III distribution is a statistical technique for fitting frequency distribution data to predict the design flood for a river at some site. Once the statistical information is calculated for the river site, a frequency distribution can be constructed.

How to Calculate Return Period given Probability?

Return Period given Probability calculator uses Return Period = 1/Probability to calculate the Return Period, The Return Period given Probability is defined as the probability of occurrence of an event at least once over a period of n successive years. Return Period is denoted by T_r symbol.

How to calculate Return Period given Probability using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Return Period given Probability, enter Probability (p) and hit the calculate button.
