Let's say we want to know the probability that a number starts with a specific string of leading digits. We can actually use Benford's law here as well!

We can use the same formula as before (P(d)=log⁡(1+1d)P(d)=\log(1+\frac{1}{d})), instead substituting our string of digits for dd.

What is the probability that the leading digits of a number are 314314?
