Just flip a coin. If you flip it 10 times, there is a good possibility that one side will come 8, 9, and even 10 times. Only flipping a coin a large number of times, one can expect to see both sides coming equally.



The whole point of p value is to account for this. You tell me the result you want with a "fair set of dice" and I'll calculate the odds of it occurring - by calculating the p value of that result you are looking for.
