@ErickWong: Whether you can round a small number to zero depends on the application.

I have fixed the typo and recalculated. I now get between 3.29e-306 < P_Q < 2.63e-44, is this correct now?

If my calculations are correct than your answer is useless. The probability has been narrowed down between ~0.0 and 0.9.

I've added calculations of your PouletNumber forumlae above. Can you please verify I have calculated the two bounds correctly?
