A lottery simulation aims to estimate the probability of winning at least once in 20 attempts, where each individual attempt has a 1 in 50 chance of winning. The simulation uses random integers from 1 to 50, where only the number 1 represents a win. After 500 trials of 20 attempts each, the simulation shows 164 trials with at least one win. A student argues this result is suspicious because 164/500 = 32.8%, but 20/50 = 40%. What is wrong with the student's reasoning?
