unlikely because it is 6 percent out of one hundred and there still is a slight chance it might happen

Unlikely

This would be unlikely because you only have a 6/100 chance of this happening. It’s rare but could happen. It isn’t likely that it will but it isn’t impossible. If it were 50-50, the percentage of chance would be 50%. So you are left with one option... unlikely.
